Tucked away in the Laurentians, Estérel Resort stands out as a premier destination to immerse yourself in the magic of the season. Bask in the crisp winter air and the inviting warmth of this unique retreat, thoughtfully designed to provide an unforgettable experience — whether you’re sharing it with friends or savouring it as a couple.

Breathe in the fresh air

Your getaway begins in the heart of nature, where frozen lakes and snow-blanketed landscapes create a picturesque winter scene. Embrace the season by strapping on your skis, snowshoes, or skates to explore this vast playground at your own pace. Cross-country skiing enthusiasts will revel in the extensive network of trails, while those seeking serenity can soak in the stillness of peaceful snowshoe walks through pristine surroundings.

Weather permitting, a skating loop behind the resort connects the three surrounding lakes, creating unforgettable outdoor adventures for all ages!

Enjoy the comfort of your spacious suite with a fireplace

As night falls, delight in one of the resort’s three gourmet dining experiences — ranked among the finest in the Laurentians — where the bold flavours of local ingredients and the chefs’ creative flair take centre stage.

Afterward, retreat to the intimate comfort of your private suite, where a central fireplace casts a warm, inviting glow. Relax, unwind, and let the luxurious tranquillity envelop you. It’s the ideal way to end a perfect winter day in the Laurentians.

Tasting experience with multiple glasses of wine and a plate of food.

Savour exceptional wines

What better way to warm up after a day of outdoor adventures than with a wine or spirits tasting in one of Canada’s largest wine cellars, offering stunning views of Lake Dupuis?

Led by engaging sommeliers, these tastings promise a journey of refined sensory discovery. Indulge in exquisite vintages from some of the world’s finest vineyards, thoughtfully paired with a selection of local cheeses or bites to share. The wine cellar’s sophisticated yet inviting atmosphere sets the tone for an unforgettable experience of relaxation and indulgence.
