It's late October and cooler temperatures are signalling the onset of winter tires over the next few weeks and with that snow will be here before we know it. The changing of the seasons also ushers in a change to sporting activities, such as skiing or snowboarding.
Once the snow is firmly on the ground, questions can swirl as to road trip destinations for some weekend or even mid-week (if your lucky!) skiing/snowboarding. A great spot to look into for your next trip maybe the Eastern Township region (about 1.5 hr east of Montreal, or 3.5 hrs from Ottawa).

Easily accessible by four hundred highway from Ottawa, Toronto & Montreal, the area offers a cluster of destinations, including: Bromont, Mount Sutton, Mount Orford and Owl's Head (pictured above).
With so many ski/snowboard options to choose from, the area is a great experience to visit multiple ski resorts during a single trip!
Most Eastern Township resorts don't have the built-up resorts atmosphere, such as the likes of Tremblant. Having said that, most are in close proximity to urban centers, such as Magog, Bromont, Sutton and Sherbrooke - options that offer variety in terms of accommodations and dinning.
