Les Ruisseaux trail Waterfall
A cluster of small waterfalls on the Les Ruisseaux trail, a short climb from Tremblant's pedestrian village in Québec, with views over the village and lake. Rocky and muddy in places.
What visitors say
The Les Ruisseaux (streams) trail climbs from the Tremblant pedestrian village through the forest on the lower slopes of the mountain. The first stop is a series of cascades falling over a rock face, with a viewing platform, sturdy wooden stairs and a picnic table. Higher up, the trail opens to views over the village, the gondola and Lac Tremblant.
Reviewers call it a short, comfortable walk from the village to the falls and a moderate hike if you complete the loop of roughly 4 km. The path is well maintained, but it's still a mountain trail: expect rocks, roots and mud, and wear hiking shoes. Bring water for the uphill.
It suits families and groups who want some nature without leaving the village for long. Autumn gets special mention for the maple colour, and one visitor saw deer. Arrive early on busy days to avoid the crowds. Leashed dogs are allowed.
Keep expectations in check. A few people found the waterfall itself modest, and one visitor who went when a lift wasn't running couldn't do the route they had planned. The trail crosses ski slopes, so it's a late-spring-to-fall outing rather than a winter one.
