Le Geant Golf Club
Le Geant, the giant, is the scenic mountain course at Mont-Tremblant. Thomas McBroom opened this par 72 of 6,836 yards in 1995, carving plateaus and tees into the slope to deliver dramatic elevation changes and some of the best views in Quebec golf, all under two hours from Montreal.

The verdict
Le Geant is the course people picture when they think of golf at Mont-Tremblant. Thomas McBroom, one of Canada's leading architects, opened it in 1995 and used the dramatic terrain above the resort to spectacular effect: elevated tees that hang over the valley, fairways that climb and fall with the mountain, and views across the Laurentians that turn an ordinary par into a photograph.
For the traveling golfer it is the scenic, exhilarating half of a two course resort. It is shorter than its sibling Le Diable at about 6,836 yards, but the elevation, the forced carries and the mountain wind keep it interesting, and the constant change of perspective makes it a memorable walk or ride. If you have time for only one round at Tremblant, Le Geant is the one for the views; if you have two days, play both.

Designer, opening year, par and yardage verified June 2026 from the resort and leading course databases. Le Geant is a par 72 of about 6,836 yards, designed by Thomas McBroom and opened in 1995. It is a public resort course; indicative 2026 green fees are a mid range Quebec resort rate, lower early and late season and through stay and play packages. Rates change by season and time of day, so always confirm current pricing and availability directly before booking.
The holes worth the trip
The drama of Le Geant is vertical. McBroom benched tees and greens into the mountainside, so the round is a sequence of elevated launch pads, downhill drives and uphill approaches, with the Laurentian forest and the Tremblant peak as the backdrop. Distances play tricks on you here: a downhill tee shot flies forever, while an uphill approach needs an extra club or two, and reading the slope is half the game.
It is not a long course by modern standards, which keeps it enjoyable for a wide range of golfers, but the elevation, the tree lined corridors and the wind off the mountain provide plenty of challenge. The greens are well shaped and the bunkering is strategic rather than penal, so the smart play is to respect the terrain, take the safe line where the drop is severe, and let the views do the rest.
Le Geant pairs naturally with the flatter, more strategic Le Diable for a two course Tremblant trip: one course for the mountain spectacle, the other for the thinking golfer. Take a cart to enjoy the climbs, and build in time on the terrace afterward for the panorama.

Where to stay nearby
Mont-Tremblant's pedestrian village sits at the base of the ski hill, with hotels, condos and the Fairmont right at the foot of the slopes. Staying in or near the village keeps both resort courses, the restaurants and the gondola within walking distance, and a stay and play package is usually the smart way to book Le Geant and Le Diable together.
For golf, pair Le Geant with the resort's strategic Le Diable and add the nearby Mont-Tremblant Golf Club for a third round. You can also see our standalone Le Geant trip and access guide, or combine Tremblant with a city stay and a round at Royal Montreal.
