The Chamonix Valley lies near the border of France and Switzerland, beneath the watchful gaze of Mont Blanc, Europe's highest peak. This beautiful year-round resort preserves its history and traditions whilst encompassing a chic, modern feel.
Unlike many of its counterparts in the French Alps, Chamonix Mont-Blanc is not a purpose-built ski resort; it began instead as a rural mountain town before developing into a mountaineering hotspot in the 1700s. Nowadays, Chamonix comprises five individual ski resorts – Grands Montets, Les Houches, Balme Tour-Vallorcine, La Flegere, and Le Brevent – making it a paradisical location for a luxury chalet escape.
The imposing Aiguilles de Chamonix mountain range – which peaks at an impressive 4810 metres at the top of Mont Blanc – overlooks the town. A ride up the Aiguille du Midi cable car is a must for spectacular 360-degree views, along with challenging off-piste skiing in winter or hiking in summer.
Away from the ski slopes, Chamonix offers an impressive array of experiences for the discerning traveller. Glide through the frosted forest on a dog-sledding adventure, or soar above it all in a hot air balloon for memories that will last a lifetime.
Heading into the central Chamonix village, you will find a blend of Savoyard charm and cosmopolitan buzz. Cobbled streets are lined with ski boutiques, local delis, chic après ski bars, and Michelin-starred restaurants with pastel-coloured facades.
During the summer months, Chamonix is a world leader in outdoor sports. Hike through ancient forests or across fragrant wildflower fields, scale via ferrata and traverse exposed ridges with the valley sprawled beneath, or mountain bike on trails that snake through picturesque landscapes, culminating in picnic-perfect meadows overlooking glacial lakes.
From the gentle slopes of Les Houches to the heart-pounding descents of the Vallée Blanche, Chamonix offers legendary terrain. But for those to whom five resorts aren't quite enough, the Mont Blanc Unlimited lift pass also allows access to several nearby ski resorts. Enjoy a gourmet breakfast at your catered chalet in Chamonix, then hop in your chauffeured car and be whisked away to Megeve in France, Verbier or Crans Montana in Switzerland, or Courmayeur in Italy.
Whether you prefer to hit the slopes on skis or on foot, Chamonix chalet rentals offer a truly memorable experience at any time of year.
