Your journey
Arrival in the Laurentians
Drive north from Montreal on the Laurentians Autoroute — the boreal forest and lake views begin within 40 minutes of leaving the city. Estérel's lake setting reveals itself as you descend to the resort.
Nordic spa circuit
The thermal circuit at the water's edge is the heart of the resort experience: outdoor hot baths on Lac Dupuis, steam rooms, cold plunge, and the long rest between rounds that the Scandinavian tradition prescribes. In winter, the contrast of heat and Laurentian cold is extraordinary.
Lake time
Take a kayak or electric boat out on Lac Dupuis — the three-lake setting allows extended paddling between connected waterways. In winter, the frozen lake becomes a skating rink and the surrounding forest becomes a snowshoe and ski trail network.
Wine cellar dinner
The resort's celebrated wine program and 500-label cellar make for a dining experience well above standard hotel fare — a natural complement to the spa and lake day.
Fireside evening in suite
The fireplace in each suite and the kitchenette for post-spa snacks make Estérel particularly well-suited to the long, slow Laurentian evening — light the fire, open a wine, watch the lake from the balcony.

The region north of Montreal has drawn families, artists, and resort developers since the railway opened it up in the 1930s; Estérel, a small municipality on Lac Dupuis, became home to one of the Laurentians' most distinctive resort properties as the tradition of destination-scale hospitality deepened.
