Jungle Magique - A
Unique Playground adds to Mont Blanc Ski Resort as a Great
Place for Kids
Mont Blanc Ski Resort,
located an hour north of Montreal, in the Quebec
Laurentians has a unique Indoor Playground - Jungle
Magique - that helps to make it a great place for kids.
Jungle Magique was added to
the facilities of this Ski Resort in 1999 and since then
has provided a popular play area for children aged 3 to 12
after a ski lesson, as part of a family ski day or ski
vacation at Mont Blanc.
| The
Fun Zone, containing the main play structure with
giant super slide, slides, ball pits, tunnels,
roller slide and climbing ropes, brings a
smile to every kids face.
The Giant Super Slide is 16
feet high, 50 feet wide and 50 feet long!!

Just look at these two
enjoying themselves. |

The arcade area has
games of skill and video machines. This room
is also available for birthday parties with large
picture windows overlooking the slopes. |
| A daycare for
children 2 years of age and over offers a fun
place to play in a supervised environment for
children. Available for full-day, half-day
and hourly visits, kids also enjoy the Fun Zone
where they were special vests. |

provides some great views of the Black
Diamond and Double Black Diamond Runs on this

slopes with 2 of the over 85 instructors at Mont
Blanc.

Snowboarders and Snow Bladers flock to the
middle mountain "Mont Faustin" where the Loup
Run contains the Snowboard Park.
