Tremblant 20/21 winter package – As skiers and snowboarders begin to think about winter, Tremblant is deploying every effort to prepare a 2020-21 season where the health and safety of its guests, its employees and its Resort community remain at the forefront of priorities. And because now more than ever, they need to reconnect with the mountain air and the thrill of hitting the slopes, they will be happy to learn that the ski season at Tremblant will start in November.
Teams have prepared, analyzed and planned various winter scenarios, taking into account physical distancing and other health measures recommended by Public Health authorities. Tremblant is working closely with the entire Alterra Mountain Company family to make the experience more user-friendly and to promote accessibility to our mountain.
Here are some highlights for Tremblant 20/21 winter package to date when operating in green, yellow and orange zones:
- Access to the usual ski terrain;
- Controlled resort visitation levels to reduce contact between people;
- Priority to season pass holders, no reservation required;
- Advance lift tickets purchase for specific dates as quantities are limited;
- Sale of most undated lift ticket products will be discontinued this season, including the Latitude card, tickets sold at Costco and corporate tickets (Ski Max);
- Loading lift capacity as usual with the exception of the gondola running at 50%, as per Public Health recommendations. Related parties can sit together, unrelated guests may elect to sit together as well but it will be optional;
