Winter Activities
Ed T Smith
Chamonix offers such an array of different activities it is easy to be a little daunted by the choice. It is also possible to miss out on seeing or doing something because you were unaware of it's existence. We are here to help.
Our skiing and boarding section explains the basics while our ski areas section breaks down each major ski area for each level of skier and snowboarders. The beginners get their own page which describes the different ski areas in the valley designed for them.
Sitting at the foot of the biggest mountain means there will be other amazing resorts nearby which we also cover. Those wishing to keep them selves amused off the mountain will be pleasantly surprised. This is not your regular alpine village with two pubs and a restaurant. Although we have those too and our favourites are listed at bars & restaurants.
The host of summer activities is also covered along with some proposed activity packages to suit every one.
Lastly and for many most importantly we guide you to the places who can add that extra luxury to your stay. Maybe a sports massage followed by a treatment at the local spa or the best bottle of wine money can buy, some foie gras and a dip in one of our jacuzzis.
