Chamonix boasts the most breathtaking high mountain scenery in all the Alps; from accessible low pasture land to Europe's highest mountain all close to vibrant cosmopolitan alpine town life. It is difficult to rate a mountain location higher. There are two distinct ski areas, Mont Blanc Massif and Aiguilles Rouges Massif, with 157 km of pisted slopes and simply miles and miles more of free ride terrain. The area combines contrasting features in each place which allow huge potential when planning family, group or weekend skiing and outdoor activity weekends.
For skiers, boarders and alpine mountaineers alike, the terrain is amazing in variety and
contrast, from glaciers to tree lined descents. Mont Blanc and the Vallee Blanche shapes
your skiing for the future and beckons you back season after season. You could
even sunbathe under the magical changing faces of Mont Blanc,
Boissons Glacier, Le Brevent ridge and Les Gaillands lake.
Andrew, Rachel and Richard have more than thirty years alpine racing, telemarking and
alpine mountaineering experience between them. Not only that, but a fair few summers
mountain biking, rock climbing and parapointing. There will be few questions they can't answer to tailor
your holiday as you want it - from die hard free stylers to back country telemarkers looking
to conquer the "Big White Mountain", or family entertainment.
