Chamonix village is situated at the foot of the wonderful Mt Blanc in the French Alps and is widely regarded as the Alpine climbing and extreme snowboarding capital of Europe. The resort has been known for a long time as a real area for extreme activities during both summer and winter seasons. Chamonix Mont Blanc was host to the 1st Winter games in the 1920s - however it’s also a domain of outstanding views offering a lot to the climber and sightseer.

Differing from many modern snowboarding fields the resort of Chamonix is not a souless ski town and has largely been preserved from the modern monstrosities that blight a majority of the French Alps. It’s fortunate to have not only an internationally renowned skiing mountain but a grand and bustling town centre.

Chamonix town is of ample size to insure that there is a lot of activities for the vacationer to do. For whatever type of trip there is something to enrapture everyone. Not to mention a large swimming and sports centre, beauty salons, paragliding and weekly market with fresh local produce; and loads of shops, luxury chalets, cafes and night-clubs, Chamonix Mount Blanc supplies a choice of mountaineering, old town charm and shopping, which only a handful snowboarding domains can equal. Why not reserve your ski break now.
