The Serene Autumn Forests of Parc du Mont-Tremblant 🍂🌲
Last autumn, I ventured into Parc national du Mont-Tremblant—a world apart from the bustling, colorful village atop Mont-Tremblant. No cable cars, no crowds, just endless quiet forests carpeted in thick layers of fallen leaves. Sunlight streamed through the trees, turning every trail into a scene straight out of a fairy tale. We spotted deer grazing by the path, wandered deep into signal-free wilderness, and listened to nothing but our own footsteps and the whisper of wind through leaves. At times, a beam of light would land on a single tree, and for that moment, everything felt still and sacred—like nature had paused just for us. ✨ ✅ Essential Tips: 📵 No cell service in most areas—download offline maps (Avenza Maps / AllTrails) before you go! 🥾 Trails for all levels—from 1-hour strolls to full-day hikes. Choose your adventure! 🧭 Bring a paper map/screenshots—some junctions lack clear markings. ☀ Days shorten in fall—plan your return before dusk to avoid hiking in the dark. 🐿 Wildlife sightings likely! Deer, squirrels, and birds appear if you stay quiet. This place isn’t about "Instagram spots"—it’s for slow walks and quiet wonder. A few lakeside views stole my heart, especially at golden hour, when the water mirrored the sky like a painted dream. 📷 Gear used: Leica M11 + Summilux-M 50mm f/1.4 ASPH / Samsung Fold 6 #Hiking #MontrealPhotography #MontrealLife #Montreal #Autumn #HikingCommunity #MountainsInFall #ForestVibes #Leica #LeicaM
