Great potential wasted.
Bromont is just 1hr driving from Montreal, on the south shore. There are plenty of varied slopes for all levels of skiers. The chalets (base and top) are recent or renovated, the slopes are groomed three times a day, the lifts are gradually replaced year after year and the snowmaking equipment is regularly updated (last generation fixed fans).
Unfortunately, they don't make enough snow with unfavourable seasons, opening only 50 to 60% of terrain, mostly boring tracks for beginners/intermediates. This combined with too many lift passes sold, and crazy real estate development in the last years. It's always crowded in the lines and annihilates the pleasure of skiing on the slopes with crazy skiers coming from everywhere. Not to mention the prices through the roof now.
In addition, there's a lot of lift failures for no reason increasing the frustration.
Bromont used to be a great place. Hoping they wake up soon to focus on why people come in the first place. Skiing and have fun.
I had a terrible experience. They confirmed by phone 2 days prior that they were open until 6pm on the day that I was flying in. Their website sold me lift tickets for 1-6pm. They then closed the mountain at 4pm, which apparently was according to their schedule. But I paid for tickets for 1-6pm. They have refused to refund any portion of my tickets, despite several polite requests both in person and online. I'm so disappointed in my first experience at Bromont, and will never return.
If you're looking for great skiing I would suggest Saint-Sauveur or Mont Tremblant.
If you're looking for great mountain biking, I would suggest the Quebec City area, specifically Sentier Du Moulin, Vallee Bras du Nord, and Mont Saint Anne.
Skip Bromont, they're a joke.
The resort stands on 3 hilltops with 6 main hill sides and a 'bunny' hill for beginners. Perfect place to learn skiing / boarding as most of the resort is on groomed, gentle terrain. Much cheaper than Tremblant and much bigger than St-Sauveur (why do they even call that a mountain?) They have some of the best snowmaking and grooming equipment in Quebec making them shine when conditions are bulletproof all around. They groom most runs twice during the day which is good when there is no snow. But when it does snow, it mixes the good snow with the base and packs it. Plus, be sure the masses will be there to ski it. You'd find it hard to see anything of a 20+cm dump 2 days after it has fallen; this is no joke. I've seen the whole mountain getting tracked in less than three hours on busy powder days. The hill gets a lot of wind and cold which can occasionally shut down lifts and render powder conditions into bulletproof wind crust overnight but that's what east coast skiing is all about.
