Whether it’s to shop and eat in a stunning setting, ascend to the glacier or enjoy unrivalled skiing, Chamonix – the best know ski resort in the Mont Blanc Valley – is within easy reach.
In truth you could ski in Megève and the Espace Diamant 100 times and not see it all or get bored. But if you want something a bit more challenging, with altitude that guarantees great conditions throughout a long season, then a day trip to Chamonix is recommended.
Snow-sports aside, all the famous Chamonix – in the town and at it’s peaks – has to offer is worth a visit all year round.
The drive is typically around 45 mins through beautiful scenes.
