Chamonix Is a Great Place to Ski

Host in 1924 to sporting history and only improving since then, Chamonix is a beautiful place offering casual sightseeing and energetic ski runs, all easily accessible from a home away from home in the shape of the chalets around the resort. First, however, a short general introduction could be advisable. Near Mont Blanc lies Chamonix, a cosy resort commune made up of some sixteen villages which is the excellent center for any mountain holiday. At the airport in Geneva, transfer into the resort from where you can readily plan the rest of your holiday in a part of the world which draws sightseers and skiers aplenty at all times — and they have good reason.

Useful venues for all forms of extreme sports are close to the resort, providing the eager extreme sports aficionado with a choice — wider than the majority of resorts offer — and all Olympic quality. Skiers and hikers may opt for the less high-octane runs with striking views around the resort, all reached by hikingon foot or by cable car. All skill levels will find something to suit here, as we can offer trails and slopes that can be experienced by beginners and casual skiers as well as the trickier runs.

While choosing somewhere to stay for a family skiing holiday, catered chalets are the smart move. Such chalets will leave you feeling at home in the Alps with no need to forgo luxury while your family enjoy winter sports. Entirely furnished in the finest style with a full assortment of essential equipment and cosy nooks, the resort’s catered chalets provide for anybody from a single guest to two all the way on to families. Highland holidays can create a romantic setting or an energetic time for friends and family, and you’ll find no better place for one to start from. Summertime or winter, there’s still all manner of things to do over your stay in the mountains, to number just a few: extreme sports, skiing, or rock climbing. Setting aside the activities listed above there’s still much to occupy your time; souvenirs to buy, sights to see, and historical landmarks. Coming via transfer from Geneva airport this is a short flight to make and once you’re there it’ll be entirely simple to put together just the right combination of accomodation and sports, which makes enjoying a truly special respite a cinch.
