Sanitary measures

The vaccination passport (for 13 years and older), accompanied by official proof of identity, is now mandatory to access Mont-Orford. Tourists who do not reside in Quebec must present proof of identity with photo and address outside Quebec, as well as official proof of vaccination provided by their country or Canadian province.
A false statement will result in the loss of your access for the season.

At this time of year, as the resort is in operation or in preparation for the ski season, we ask hikers to respect the authorized trails for hiking. This allows our teams to continue their operations as well as the safety of everyone!

Do not forget at all times to check the Conditions page to validate the opening or closing status of each of the trails according to the conditions or the maintenance.

The uphill skier's pledge

Winter hiking is new this year! As there are several sports taking place at the resort, in addition to maintenance operations, it is important that everyone respect our hiking code to allow harmonious cohabitation on the mountain and ensure that the practice of winter hiking can last.

I will have my pass with me at all times on the trails.
My last climb will begin no later than 9pm, and by 10pm, I will be leaving in my car.
As a group, like scouts, in single file we will climb.
At the edge of the ski run, throughout my ascent, I will stay.
My headlamp after 4 pm I will wear, with white visible on the front, and red towards the rear.
The maintenance crews I will always respect. When they arrive, I will stop and let them pass.
The Mont-Orford website I will always check, for the latest information on closed trails for snowmaking, grooming and maintenance work.
Expert or not, in no black run will I ever venture.
Up is the only direction I will go on uphill trails - on skis, never with crampons or snowshoes.
Though my best friend he may be, my dog will never come with me.
