Enjoy the Laurentians

In May 2026, Gravelle Laurentides launched La Grande Boréale, a new adventure gravel cycling route ranging from 255 to 350 km, designed to be completed over 4 or 5 days. Developed by SOPAIR, the MRC of Pays‑d’en‑Haut, and Plein Air Pays‑d’en‑Haut, the route starts in Morin‑Heights and offers a fresh way to experience the Laurentians. It passes through Val‑David, Sainte‑Lucie, Mont‑Tremblant National Park, and Parc Éco-Laurentides, combining gravel roads, paved sections, and natural trails. Cyclists can choose from a variety of accommodation options, with an optional extension—the Retraite de l’Ouest—to make the adventure last longer.

In 2026, Intermiel enhances its agrotourism experience with the launch of the Pollinator Gardens, an immersive space dedicated to biodiversity and environmental awareness. Opening to visitors this summer, the landscaped trail highlights pollinator‑friendly plants and the vital role of insects through engaging and accessible interpretation areas. Developed in partnership with the Mirabel Agricultural Training Centre, the project emphasizes education and knowledge sharing. This new attraction coincides with Intermiel’s 50th anniversary, marked by special events celebrating the legacy, craftsmanship, and environmental values of this long‑standing family‑run business in the Laurentians.

This summer, Oka National Park enhances the visitor experience with the opening of the Discovery Space, a new interpretation area located in the park’s shoreline sector. Ideally positioned between the beach and the service centre, this welcoming hub offers self‑guided discovery of the park’s natural and cultural heritage through engaging educational features. The site also includes an outdoor animation theatre for interpretive activities and gatherings, along with a convenient information point. This addition coincides with the launch of 25 new Étoile ready‑to‑camp units, available beginning June 5, 2026 at the Les Dunes campground—inviting visitors to extend their stay and reconnect with nature.

Located in Ferme‑Neuve, Montagne du Diable Regional Park stands out as a must‑visit outdoor destination for summer 2026. A recipient of the 2025 Outdoor Excellence Award for sustainable practices, the park invites visitors to explore a vast boreal landscape featuring over 80 km of hiking trails and 35 km of mountain biking routes. Iconic sites such as Windigo Falls and the Fire Tower offer memorable viewpoints. Free access for visitors under 18, equipment rentals, and Kéroul accessibility certification make the park welcoming to all. With immersive lodging options, it delivers a perfect balance of nature, adventure, and comfort.

Since May 16, 2026, Ziptrek Ecotours Tremblant takes adrenaline to new heights with the launch of the Jump Zone, a thrilling new attraction just steps from the pedestrian village.

Guided by certified professionals, the experience is fully secure and offers stunning views of the lake and resort. Lasting about one hour, the Jump Zone appeals to active families, thrill‑seekers, and corporate groups alike. Affordable and flexible, it can also be combined with Ziptrek’s iconic zipline tours for an action‑packed day.
