Ideal Alpine Climate
Chamonix’s ski season traditionally runs from December to April, offering optimal skiing conditions and breathtaking mountain views. During peak winter months, temperatures range from -5 to 10 degrees Celsius, ideal for winter sports enthusiasts. Be prepared for colder spells, dropping as low as -25 degrees Celsius midwinter, by enjoying evenings layered up in a cozy Chamonix chalet with a fireplace.
Winter Sport Activities
Chamonix is where legendary slopes have been made, like Brevent and Les Houches. There are a diverse range of ski slopes that cater to all levels of expertise. Over the years there has been a focus on creating areas in Chamonix designed specially for families such as Mont Blanc Legend Kid Zone on La Flégère, ideal for young skiers. For seasoned adventurers seeking challenges, Les Grands Montets offers fast and icy pistes, with new lift station and cable car access planned by 2024 for high-octane descents - just be sure to refer to it as Les Grands when you’re telling people about your success or bails. Chamonix is steeped in rich winter sports heritage and recently celebrated the centenary as host to the First Winter Olympics.
Next Level Après-Ski Scene
After exhilarating mountain pursuits, indulge in Chamonix's vibrant après-ski scene. Enjoy culinary delights ranging from classic Savoyard specialties, like raclette and tartiflette at the beautiful restaurants throughout the town or head to the Michelin-starred Albert 1er, to enjoy more modern takes on Savoie and Piedmont cuisine. Your evening drinks might quickly end up with you partying the night away at MOÖ, the place to be not just with locals but some well known faces in the ski scene and if you’re looking for live music then Chambre Neuf is the place to be, just be sure any photos of you dancing on the tables don’t make it to social media if you let loose.
