Val-des-Monts, population 9,200, is a municipality in the Outaouais region of Quebec, Canada, located about 40 kilometres north of Ottawa. Formed in 1974 by the merger of the towns of Perkins, Saint-Pierre-de-Wakefield and Poltimore, it consists mainly of farms and mountainous forests.

Due to its many lakes, recreational opportunities and cottages its population is boosted during weekends and holidays by visitors from nearby Ottawa and Gatineau.
