The village of Mont-Tremblant (Secteur Village), some 4km southwest of the Mont-Tremblant ski resort, is spread along the shores of pretty Lac Mercier. You’ll find shops, cafes, B&Bs, restaurants and a pretty lakeside section of the P'tit Train du Nord recreation path, perfect for exploring on foot or cross-country skis. In summer, there are cruises out on the water; in winter, the lake adjoining the municipal beach is converted to an ice rink, illuminated for skating until 10pm.
