關於
Mont Saint-Bruno (French pronunciation: [mɔ̃ sɛ̃ bʁyno]; also known as Mount Saint Bruno in English) is part of the Monteregian Hills in southern Quebec, Canada. Its summit stands 218 m (715 ft) high and lies 23 km (14 mi) east of downtown Montreal.
This mountain has a ski resort, a natural area, and an apple orchard. Forests of beech, maple, oak, hickory, ironwood, hemlock and pine cover those slopes which have not been cleared for agriculture or skiing. The apple orchard is an agricultural research station operated by IRDA (The Research and Development Institute for the Agri-Environment of Québec).
Mont-Saint-Bruno National Park encompasses part of the mount, which also contains ski slopes Ski Mont Saint-Bruno. A quarry also occupies part of it. Mont Saint-Bruno is also home to a small Canadian Forces training camp where new recruits from the Canadian Forces Leadership and Recruit School learn navigation and topography.
