Mont-Saint-Pierre is a village municipality in Quebec, Canada, located in the regional county municipality of La Haute-Gaspésie in the administrative region of Gaspésie–Îles-de-la-Madeleine.

The village is located at the foot of the eponymous Mount Saint-Pierre. This 411 metres (1,348 ft) high mount juts into the Gulf of Saint Lawrence, separating Cove Mont-Louis from Cove Mont-Saint-Pierre, into which the Mont-Saint-Pierre River flows. The place was formerly called Rivière-à-Pierre.^[1]

The 2021 census there were 186 inhabitants.

Mont-Saint-Pierre is well known for hang-gliding and paragliding, and home to the Mont-Saint-Pierre Ecological Reserve. The Festival of Free Flight (Fête de Vol Libre) is held each year since 1978.
