A Magical Start to the Evening

As a family travel writer, I’m always on the lookout for unique experiences that can bring families closer together. So, when I heard about the Tremblant Sleighride in Mont-Tremblant, I knew it was something I had to try with my family. We arrived just as the sun was beginning to set, casting a golden glow over the snow-covered landscape. The air was crisp, and the excitement was palpable as we climbed aboard the sleigh, greeted by our friendly storyteller and musician.

The sleigh was pulled by two majestic Percheron horses, their bells jingling merrily as we set off. Wrapped in warm blankets, we snuggled together, ready to be whisked away into a winter wonderland. The ride began on an old abandoned golf course, which seemed a bit unusual at first, but as we glided along, it became clear that this was the perfect setting for our adventure. The open fields gave way to enchanting forest trails, and the views of the wilderness were simply breathtaking.

Enchanting Stories and Songs

As we journeyed deeper into the forest, our animator began to regale us with tales of Mont-Tremblant’s rich folklore. His storytelling was captivating, and the accompanying Québecois folk songs added a delightful touch to the experience. My kids were enthralled, their eyes wide with wonder as they listened to the legends of the area. It was a joy to see them so engaged, and I couldn’t help but join in the singing, feeling like a kid again myself.

The ride was smooth and leisurely, allowing us to fully appreciate the beauty of our surroundings. The snow began to fall gently, adding a magical touch to the evening. It was the perfect backdrop for our sleigh ride, and I couldn’t help but feel grateful for the opportunity to share this moment with my family. The combination of the storytelling, music, and stunning scenery made for an unforgettable experience.

A Cozy Conclusion

About halfway through the ride, we stopped for a much-needed break. We were treated to steaming cups of hot chocolate, which warmed us from the inside out. It was the perfect opportunity to stretch our legs and share some laughs about the ride so far. My kids couldn’t stop talking about the stories they had heard, and it was heartwarming to see them so animated and happy.

As we continued on our journey, the sun dipped below the horizon, painting the sky in shades of pink and purple. The ride back was just as enchanting as the ride out, and we sang “Jingle Bells” with gusto, our voices echoing through the forest. It was a moment of pure joy and togetherness, and I knew it was an experience my family would cherish for years to come.

The Tremblant Sleighride was everything I had hoped for and more. It was a perfect blend of adventure, culture, and family bonding, and I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a unique and memorable experience. Whether you’re a couple or a family, this sleigh ride is sure to leave you with a warm heart and a smile on your face.
