Default Getting to Mont-Tremblant

Hi

I am thinking about going to Mont-Tremblant with my gf for Fall
colors in early October.
I live in North York , Ontario ,thus i know i will take HWY 401 East.
Here are my questions :

(1)I visited Montreal before . What would be the shortest routes
you recommend me to take ? Please let me know in details if possible.

(2)What beautiful attractions would you recommend me to drop by, while
it's on my way to Mont-Tremblant ?

Not the shortest, but the safest :

Take 401 East that continues as Hwy 20 East in Quebec. Take Hwy 13 North
then Hwy 640 East and Hwy 15 North.

On your way to Tremblant, past St-Jerome on Hwy 15 North, there's a lot of
small villages with good restaurants. Check this site for more info :

On your way back, you can take road 323 to Montebello (there's a zoo near
the town and a couple of good restaurants). Continue to Ottawa on Hwy
148/50 and then back to North York on 416 South and then 401 West.

Have a nice trip !

When you get into the Montreal area from highway 401 to autoroute 40, take
highway 15 north. Once you are in the Ste Agathe area, you will connect
onto highway 117. This will take you up to Mont Tremblant. Look for the
signs after you past St Jovite for the exit towards Mont Tremblant.. It is
about 1 1/2 hours up.

Halfway up is Saint Sauveur which is a nice little town. Near the highway
are mega outlets but into town is a nice street with quaint boutiques and
restaurants.

Take 401 until you connect to autoroute 40. Once you get past west island,
the least complicated route is to take highway 15 up which then connects to
117 to Tremblant. However, if there's traffic on the 40 once you past the
airport area, you can opt to take number 13 north and then 640 over to the
15. This is the way I go up north to avoid the lower part of the 15 at the
40 intersection which can get a bit busy.

I would suggest to stop over at Ste Sauveur which is half way up to
Tremblant. It's a nice little village. There's mega warehouse outlets by
the highway but if you go further into town, there's nice quaint boutiques
and restaurants.
