The Rhone / French Alps / Haute-Savoie region
The French Alps have offered famous ski resorts for hundreds of years, and Chamonix is one of the most famous as it sits at the foot of Mont Blanc which at 4810m is the highest mountain in Europe.
The winter is ski season from December through to May, although the best snow is usually from February onwards. As the resort is a high resort at over 1000m it has a longfer ski season than most resorts and good snow in March and April is not usual. The resort is also famous for ski touring and is the start of the famous Chamonix to Zermatt Haute Route ski tour (this can also be done as a hiking tour in summer)
In the summer Chamonix is as busy as the winter with temperatures of 30 degrees in the valley. The area is great for mountaineering, hiking, walking, paragliding and even mountain biking with cross country and downhill trails.
Chamonix / Chamonix Town Centre area
The famous places to visit are the Aiguille du Midi cable car which goes up to 3842m so is the highest in Europe with fantastic views of Mont Blanc and the high mountains. There is also a cable car down to the Mer de Glace glacier and ice cave.
For attractions Chamonix hosts the Rock Climbing World cup championships in mid July, a paragliding festival from Mont Blanc at the start of September, the Kandahar stage of the downhill ski championships in January and the North Face Ultratrail marathon in August.
There is something to do all year round - just ask us for advice!
How to get there
The best way to reach Chamonix is by flying to Geneva airport which is serviced by all the budget airlines of Easyjet, BMI baby, Jet2, etc. There are regular transfer minibuses from the airport which cost 25 euros per person each way, and it takes 1.25 hours. If you prefer train from the Uk it is easy to get Eurostar to Paris, then change trains and the TGV trains end just down the valley from chamonix, then there is a short half hour train ride to Chamonix itself. Driving is easy in France with the French autoroutes, and it takes about eight hours from the channel. Further details of all these options are on our website.
