About Mont Tremblant
Mont Tremblant is located on the traditional unceded territory of the Algonquin Anishinabeg People. It is a four-season destination centered around a world-class ski resort village. In the winter it hosts FIS world cup events, and in the summer Ironman triathlon races and a popular jazz festival. It is situated adjacent to a large wilderness area within a provincial park approximately 125km north of Montréal. The pedestrian village features several boutiques, shops and restaurants. There are also many recreational opportunities including hiking, cycling, canoeing, boating, tennis, golfing and even a Casino.

There are no tickets, fees or registration for the bus – just show up on time. Please meet at the YUL information desk near door 28 on the arrivals level at least 15 minutes before the bus departs. A conference volunteer (named above), carrying the conference logo, will meet you there. Please note that the information desk staff will have no information about the buses; this is simply a convenient place to meet.
