Tips from the Community
Chutes Croches Trail is a short but beautiful trail that leads you through a packed forest path, over a river, and ends with a view of Croches Falls. The trailhead begins at the parking area, but the lot is relatively small and fills up quickly on weekends and during fall colors. Since it's a short hike, there is a lot of turnover, so if there is no parking when you arrive, with a short wait, a space will usually open up. Since you've already paid Sépaq park entry fees for Parc national du Mont-Tremblant, there’s no additional charge for parking.

A lovely spot along the P'tit Train du Nord with lots of picnic tables to stop and have a snack. And, of course, use the bathroom.
