"Chamonix is only two hours from Geneva airport and is also a popular self-drive destination. Unlike many French resorts, it's a large, vibrant town with lots of shops selling the latest ski gear as well as a wide selection of restaurants and bars. Of course, the views are stunning as you are literally at the foot of Mont Blanc!"

For skiers and mountaineers, Chamonix is a veritable Mecca. Well known for having enough steep and challenging terrain to last a lifetime, the ski areas also provide a balance to suit the more intermediate end of the spectrum. Grands Montets, Brévent-Flégère, Les Houches and the Domaine de Balme each have a variety of pistes, but the real boon is for the advanced or expert skiers. Skiing off the Aguille du Midi (with a guide) for example, is a bucket-list item. You'll also find some great accommodation. See top ski apartments in Chamonix for places to stay.
Chamonix has a permanent population and is a working town with schools, a library and the like. It’s just as busy in the summer as in the winter and this makes it feel homely and welcoming all year round, unlike some of the purpose-built resorts. You will need to hop on the valley buses to make the most of the huge ski area available on your lift pass, but it’s worth it. When you get back to town at the end of the day, the variety of food and après on offer will taste all the better when you know you’ve earnt it.
