Or more closely to the mountain peaks…

Cross-country skiing, snowshoe hiking, dog-sled rides, ice climbing, and perfecting your skills in making snowman... There's no doubt that these winter destinations appeal to the whole family.
And in the summer, how gorgeous the mountain is! The massifs leave their white mantle behind and reveal their green beauty.
