An awesome new feature
The Frosty Slides offer a sliding experience unlike any other in Montreal. With its 18 lanes of varying heights that are built entirely of ice, including two luge sliding lanes for even more thrills, the sliding village set up at the base of Mont Boulle has something to delight the for the entire family.
The Frosty Slides are accessible with the purchase of a Sliding Pass which, for just $8 per person or $25 per family, entitles you to unlimited access throughout the eight days of the Fête. It also has other advantages such as free admission to the Stewart Museum and the Biosphere, Environment Museum.
