THE VIBE

Mont-Sainte-Anne is one of eastern Canada's most important ski mountains, located just 30 minutes from Québec City along the beautiful St. Lawrence River. It holds the distinction of having the largest vertical drop lit for night skiing in Canada at over 2,000 feet. The north-side terrain offers genuine steeps and excellent gladed skiing, while the south side provides cruiser-friendly groomers. Paired with the stunning beauty of the Québec countryside and one of the best food cultures on the continent, it is a complete ski experience.

Best For

  • ✓Québec City skiers
  • ✓Night skiing enthusiasts
  • ✓Anyone combining skiing with Québec's culinary and cultural scene

Skip If

  • ✗You want deep powder (Eastern Canadian snowfall is modest)
  • ✗You expect western-scale bowls and alpine terrain
