In winter skiing and snowboarding dominate the slopes, while summer sees hikers and mountain bikers take over.

Bromont Resort offers year‑round exploration on its forested slopes. In the warmer months, hikers, trail runners, and mountain bikers can follow a web of trails that wind steadily toward broad views over the surrounding hills. In winter, those same routes give way to groomed runs, glades, and night‑skiing across several faces of the mountain. It’s an easy place to spend a full day outside at any time of year. In fact it might be somewhere you make a point to visit during different seasons in order to experience each one in turn.

Trail 36 is fairly technical. I felt underbiked at times riding a gravel bike with 42c tires, and most riders I crossed were using mountain bikes. Some steep hills (both up and down) with big rocks. The end is flat and a nicely groomed gravel cycle path.
