Offering three distinctive zones and incredible vistas, the area of Les Grands Montets is known for its steep terrain and challenging off-piste skiing. However, there is also a gentler ski area for beginners available here too. Ski areas include the lower terrain around the village of Argentière, the mountain stretching from Lognan to Borchard, as well as steeper alpine terrain that reaches up to 3,275m and includes the jaw-dropping Argentière glacier.
Offering extensive, winding runs as well as steeper, dramatic drops for experienced visitors and seasonaires, the Chamonix resort also provides novice and intermediate skiers with fantastic training slopes. Home to the Kandahar World Cup skiing event, Les Houches is great for beginners, with a welcoming upper plateau that also provides mountain bikers and hikers with rewarding views during warmer months. Meanwhile, cable car rides offer breathtaking ascents to sublime summits, where you can marvel at the peaks of Les Droites and L’Aiguille Verte. Close to the centre of Chamonix, the thrilling Accro’Park offers climbing and ziplining experiences in a sprawling adventure park nestled within the forested area of Les Gaillands.
After another day of adventure in the fresh air, the Chamonix Valley offers a myriad of après-ski options for visitors to enjoy, ranging from cosy mountain inns to lively bars located in the heart of the town centre. For something a little different, indoor activities such as spa treatments and wine tastings make for indulgent and memorable evening experiences.
Wholly deserving of its prestigious reputation, the spectacular Chamonix Valley offers winter sports enthusiasts and nature lovers alike a uniquely beautiful setting with an abundance of alpine charm.
Chamonix is not just a winter haven; it's a year-round resort. Les Grands Montets offers stunning scenery, landscapes, and opportunities for exploration on foot or mountain bike. The Chamonix Valley boasts ice-falls, waterfalls, and various paths. Adventurers can take a cable car ride to the summit, enjoying views of L’Aiguille Verte, Les Droites, and Les Drus peaks, or opt for the thrill of a tandem paragliding flight from a 3220m altitude. The snow garden at the top of Grands Montets, crafted and maintained by the piste team, is a must-see.
For those seeking summer thrills, the Accro Adventure Park, with its treetop climbing and the rock-climbing crag in Lac des Gaillands, is not to be missed.
