Chamonix Ski Holiday Guide

Activities in Chamonix

Dog Sledding

Travel at the speed of dog through the stunning alpine wilderness of the Chamonix Valley. Learn how to harness and ‘mush’ your own sled!

Helicopter Transfers

Arrive in resort in style! Step into a helicopter and fly to your chosen ski holiday destination.

Catch a Helicopter transfer from your arrival airport whether Lyon (St Exupery), Lyon (Bron), Chambery, Grenoble (St Geoirs), Grenoble (Le Versoud), Annecy in France or Geneva in Switzerland. Get whisked from the airport at 200km/h straight to your resort saving a considerable amount of time that you would have otherwise lost sitting in those hectic transfer day traffic jams. Carriage for any excess luggage will be arranged as will a vehicle that will be waiting upon your arrival at your resort helipad ready to swiftly take you to the front door of your chosen apartment or hotel.

Paragliding

Paragliding is a very popular Alpine activity, and is such a great way to get a completely different perspective of the slopes that you have been skiing – a bird’s eye view to be exact!

Ski Touring

Ski Touring is very popular in the Mont Blanc Massif. There are a number of routes you can do from the famous Valley Blanche to the Haute Route which goes from Chamonix to Zermatt and if that did not tire you out, you can continue onto Saas Fee. Ski Touring is only recommended for the high-intermediate to advanced skier who is physically fit.

Snowshoeing

Snowshoeing is a wonderful way to get away from the ski crowds and right into the heart of the wilderness.

There are a few different tours on offer, from half day ones to full day, and also an evening one which finishes off with a traditional meal in a mountain hut or restaurant – apparently this is great fun when there is a full moon!
