Chamonix is a truly amazing place. Situated at the foot of the spectacular Mont Blanc massif, it is an elegant mountain town steeped in centuries of alpine tradition. The town draws people from all over the world – both the holiday-maker and those looking for adventure, whether walkers, mountain bikers, paragliders or mountaineers.
The town centre is a vibrant place full of bustling restaurants and bars. Sitting outside one of the many pavement cafés is a great way of taking in the atmosphere of the cobbled streets whilst admiring the stunning mountain backdrop. A wide range of shops offers everything from traditional regional fayre and souvenirs to stylish fashion and technical mountain equipment.
The Saturday market is well worth a visit for the locally made produce brought in from all over the Haute-Savoie region.
The Chamonix valley is an area of outstanding natural beauty and spread along the valley floor are a series of villages all with their own charm and character …
Mont Blanc, ‘the Giant of the Alps’, has always held a magnetic power of attraction. Chintalaya is just minutes walking distance to the Aiguille du Midi cable car, the highest cable car ascent in Europe.
The ride takes you up to the rooftops of Europe and to one of the most popular panoramic viewpoints in the world. Accomplished mountaineers, high-altitude climbers and experienced skiers practise side by side with paragliders whilst tourists marvel at the breathtaking scenery. ‘La Mer de Glace’ (the Sea of Ice) is the largest glacier in France and can be approached in several ways: from the comfort of the panoramic terrace; by visiting the ice grotto, skilfully carved anew each year; or more athletically, skiing down the famous Vallee Blanche (White Valley) or by hiking through the seracs.There are a number of day trips around the Haute-Savoie region:The beautiful town of Annecy, lying on the rippling shores of the Lac d’Annecy, where water and mountains blend admirably together.
Chamonix has one of the most beautiful golf courses in the Alps, surrounded as it is by famous peaks such as the Aiguille du Midi, les Drus, la Verte and of course, Mont Blanc itself. The 18 hole Trent Jones Senior course is only 5 minutes drive from the centre of town, just outside the village of Les Praz, and is open from May until November. There are several other courses in close proximity to Chamonix, which makes it an excellent place to arrange a golf tour with a difference, including Evian, Bossey, Esery, Megeve, les Gets and Annecy.
