Flying Mile

Flying Mile is a women's World Cup technical ski course in Mont-Tremblant town in Quebec, Canada, first held in 1983. The course is part of Mont Tremblant Ski Resort, located at Flying Mile Peak.

The course profile is straight with average incline at 28% and starts from 565 meters above sea level and 1200 m long, reaches a difference in altitude of 230, up to 335 meters of the town centre. It is characterized by a persistent low slope along its entire length, but is dotted with the presence of various changes in slope and bumps. The initial flat part leads to a short wall (steepest part) which ends in a very undulating section which continues up to a few tens of meters from the finish line, located at the end of a short wall.

In 1983 season first ever World Cup events were organised, with women's downhill and giant slalom. Canadian skier Laurie Graham won the downhill and French skier Anne Flore Rey.

In 1994 new chairlift, with the same name as this course, was built along the slope and mountain.

In 2023/24 season World Cup events returned after 40 years break with two women's giant slaloms.

In 2024/25 season, two planned women's World Cup giant slaloms were cancelled due to lack of snow.
