In the heart of the Laurentians, where the mountains meet the vibrant energy of an iconic village, les Sommets offers far more than a simple outdoor outing. It delivers a true experience to be lived — a chance to reconnect with nature, enjoy unforgettable moments, and escape everyday life, just minutes from SaintSauveur. 

 

Whether you are discovering the region for the first time or returning as a regular visitor, experiencing les Sommets means understanding why it has become a mustvisit destination in the Laurentians. 

 

What exactly is les Sommets? 

 

Les Sommets is a recognized name in Québec’s mountain and outdoor recreation landscape. It brings together a group of destinations and experiences designed to make the mountain accessible, welcoming, and memorable — all year long. 

 

Here, you don’t just come to “do an activity.” You come to create memories, enjoy a unique atmosphere, and feel truly away from it all, while staying close to everything. 

 

A vision focused on the human experience 

 

What sets les Sommets apart is its focus on the overall experience: warm welcomes, vibrant ambiance, and moments meant to be shared. Everything is designed to be simple, enjoyable, and meaningful — whether you arrive with family, friends, or as a couple. 

 

The result is a destination people return to, again and again, because it feels good… and because there is always something new to discover. 

 

A strong presence in Quebec’s mountain landscape 

 

Les Sommets brings together several wellknown mountain destinations, each with its own personality, yet united by the same vision. The group includes Sommet SaintSauveur (including the versant Avila), Sommet Morin Heights, Sommet Olympia, Sommet Gabriel, and Sommet Edelweiss in the Outaouais region. 

 

This network of destinations allows visitors to explore different atmospheres while enjoying the same quality experience across every site.
