This is the place where I'd go skiing when I lived in Saint Sauveur. I also taught skiing at two…read moredifferent times in my life. I remember back in the 1994-95 season, when I first became a ski instructor, I got my CSIA Level 1 at Mont Saint Sauveur in January of 1995. Later that season, in April, I got my CSIA Level 2 at Tremblant. Mont Saint Sauveur has such a long history being a ski resort, from the days of the ski train way back well before my time, to the Laurentian Autoroute (Highway), which gave people easier access to the Laurentians than route 117.
The nice thing about Mont Saint Sauveur is that after you finish skiing, there are lots of great restaurants in town, as well as places to stay. Before I became a ski instructor, I took my pre-instructor course there too, and I enjoyed it a lot. I was always happy to share my love of skiing with someone that might have been new to the sport. It's a great way to be outside and enjoy nature. I used to ski with my mom, which was fun, as I could practice my teaching with her as well. I'm happy to give this ski hill 5 stars.
BTW, if you come from Montreal to go skiing there on the weekend, I would suggest leaving later on Sunday night, as there is less traffic. If not, you'll be stuck in traffic all the way to Montreal, which is not pleasant. I suggest going to a restaurant in town, to the ski hill bar itself or taking a nice walk.
