Luxury Ski Holidays in Chamonix
Located high in the French Alps and dominated by the stunning Mont Blanc, Chamonix has been a popular winter holiday destination for centuries, having hosted the first-ever Winter Olympics in 1924. Prior to this, Chamonix was an extremely popular base for mountaineering and this legacy continues to the present day.
Set in a valley that stretches 20 kilometres from Les Houches to Le Tour, ski holidays in Chamonix boast incredible scenery with views of Mont Blanc and snow-capped peaks. Chamonix has a car-free centre full of atmosphere with cobbled streets and beautiful old buildings. Chalets in Chamonix are dotted around the resort and are mostly positioned within a short walk or drive of the slopes
Shops sell everything from souvenirs to high-tech climbing equipment and there are plenty of bars and restaurants for post-ski dining and socialising; although those renting a catered chalet in Chamonix will be able to enjoy delicious cuisine in the privacy of their chalet.
Families and adrenaline junkies alike will find an array of activities to keep them occupied if skiing is not on the agenda. Take a tour of the Grotte de Glace (ice cave) and Glaciarium at Montenvers or discover the indoor Olympic ice rink. There are also plenty of designated zones for sledging too.

Skiing in Chamonix
Offering 173 km of pistes plus masses of off-piste terrain, there is plenty of skiing to keep you entertained during your stay. The Mont Blanc road tunnel links Chamonix to Courmayeur so it is also possible to ski in Italy with the Mont Blanc Unlimited pass during a Chamonix ski holiday.
Skiing in Chamonix falls into four small, widely separated areas that are individual in character. This can be tricky for mixed-ability groups and may require groups to split up or some bussing around between areas. This can be made easier if your ski chalet in Chamonix comes with a driving service.
Most of Chamonix’s skiing is above the tree line with several beginner areas and blue runs on all four mountains. Confident intermediates can find some testing red pistes and for experts, there are many challenging black runs to negotiate and excellent off-piste close to the pistes and from the top of Brevent and Grands Montets. The most famous off-piste run is La Vallee Blanche, a 20 km long spectacular route from the Aiguille du Midi to a point below Montenvers.
