Whilst Chamonix ski holidays and the first Winter Olympics in 1924 have brought fame to the area, there is much more to enjoy from a Chamonix ski chalet or Chamonix rental accommodation than just the magnificent skiing. Things to do on Holiday in Chamonix, France There are a magnitude of gentle runs through the forests, miles of cross-country ski pistes, snow parks, glacier descents and of course the world renowned down-hill pistes to enjoy from your Chamonix ski chalet. Even if you do not ski or snowboard, Europe’s largest cable car or one of the many cog railways will take you to some of the most incredible views in the Alps. You can also try the marked winter trails, snowshoe trails, ice rinks, indoor climbing or simply relax and indulge in one of Chamonix’s spas. In the summer, Chamonix is still an adventure sport paradise. The cable cars take you to the centre of the Mont Blanc Massif, where there are 350km of hiking trails, 40km of mountain biking tracks, many cliff faces for climbing and mountaineering, paragliding and there is even an 18 hole golf course! In the spring, the melt waters rage down the rivers, making perfect conditions for white-water rafting weekends in Chamonix. The town of Chamonix itself is very cosmopolitan, with vibrant après-ski and an architectural heritage which amazes first time visitors. The Alpine Museum lets you understand the history of Chamonix, and reveals a few secrets of Mont Blanc and the surrounding Alpine peaks. Places to go on holiday in Chamonix, France There is a great wealth of resorts in the Chamonix valley, meaning that everyone can find a summer or ski holiday in Chamonix which will allow them to get the most out of the area and the rental chalets on offer. For experienced adventure sportsmen, the Grands Montets tremendous on and off-piste runs, snow park and bordercross track will provide a spectacular and enjoyable challenge. Les Houches, provides natural skiing through woods and forests, with panoramic views and timeless alpine villages, whilst the resorts of La Vormaine and Le Savoy cater for the less experienced skiers or snowboarders. Weather in Chamonix, France From July to September, the weather is sunny and cool with temperatures hovering around 15°C, which is perfect for some of the strenuous walking, climbing and biking in Chamonix. The winters are of course cold, but not as bitter as some of the North American ski resorts, with average temperatures in January around -2°C.</p>]]></content:encoded> <category><![CDATA[Chamonix Mont Blanc]]></category> <link>http://www.qualitysport.org/ChamonixMontBlanc/chamonix-chalets-to-rent</link> <guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.qualitysport.org/ChamonixMontBlanc/chamonix-chalets-to-rent</guid> <pubDate>Sun, 02 Nov 2025 08:00:00 +0000</pubDate> </item> <item> <title>Mont Blanc Organiser</title> <description>Montblanc have a range of organisers, agendas, diaries and notes to suit your scheduling needs.

Tips on planning a trail running trip around Mont-Blanc. In recent years, the Ultra-Trail du Mont-Blanc trail running race has been considered the epitome of the trail running world. And with good reason—the rugged, 104-mile race features 30, 000 feet of elevation change and 10 mountain pass crossings as it takes runners around the Mont-Blanc massif range. It starts in Chamonix, France, and winds through portions of Italy and Switzerland before returning to Chamonix, offering amazing mountain views and cultural interaction along the way. Running the UTMB trail race (or any of the four other races held in the last week of August) can be a tall order, but you also need qualifying points to gain entry. However, if running 104 miles in one push (with a 38-hour time limit) isn’t within you abilities, you might consider around the biggest mountain range in Western Europe over several days. Running the Tour du Mont-Blanc (TMB) trail while staying in mountain huts, small hotels and hostels has become increasingly popular in recent years. You can run the trail from a minimalist point of view or dabble in a mild amount of luxury, depending on where you stay and what kind of meals you eat. VIDEO: The North Face Film “Curiosity” Highlights UTMB, Chamonix American Krissy Moehl is one of two female runners to win the UTMB twice—the other being American Rory Bosio, who won the race in 2013 and 2014—but Moehl’s fondest memory of running in the Mont Blanc region is a solo, four-day tour of the route in 2011. She carried minimal gear, slept in huts and otherwise ran while disconnecting herself from the world. “It was so cool to interact with all sorts of people out on the trail, ” Moehl says. “Most people staying in the refugios were hikers or mountain bikers, but there was a shared sense of adventure and purpose that we were all out there doing these things in such a beautiful, rugged place.” Here are some basic tips on how to plan a trail running trip around the Mont-Blanc massif. 1. Getting There: The closest international airport to Chamonix is Geneva, Switzerland, about an hour away by car. You can rent a car at the airport or take a shuttle directly to Chamonix. (There is daily train service to Chamonix, but there is no direct line from Geneva.) If you’re running with a group, a rental car can serve as a sag wagon if runners are willing to alternate as the driver during various sections of the course. 2. The Route: The Tour du Mont-Blanc trail is well-marked, although signage and spray-painted red and yellow “TMB” trail markers are more apparent outside of the villages. The route varies in places, but most of it consists of soft dirt trail interspersed with more technical rocky/gravel sections. In a few places, the route overlaps paved roads and dirt roads. Trail segments can be as short as 10 miles or as long as 30, depending how you decide to break up the course. You can run the route clockwise or counter-clockwise, but most runners prefer to follow the counter-clockwise direction of the race. (If you don’t want to run the entire route, you can catch a bus back to Chamonix in Courmayeur, Italy, or a train back to Chamonix in the Swiss towns of Trient or Vallorcine.) 3. Weather: Plan your run to fall between mid-May and late August for the best conditions. Temperatures typically range between the low 50s and upper 70s during the late spring to late summer, but rain can be frequent in the mountains during the summer. Be aware that brief bouts of snow and sub-freezing temperatures can come out of nowhere in the late spring and late summer. 4. Gear: A pair of sturdy trail running shoes, lightweight moisture-wicking clothing and a lightweight, medium-sized trail running pack with a large reservoir are mandatory, while a waterproof shell (and pants), a warm hat, sunblock, a second pair of socks, detailed maps and lightweight trekking poles are highly advised. If you’re going to run as minimally as possible, consider carrying a sleeping bag liner and an inflatable sleeping pad while also carrying a second pair of socks and shorts to change into after your run. A first-aid kit, blister repair patches and a small roll of duct tape should also be in your pack. RELATED: A Go-To Guide To International Racing 5. Food: Pack plenty of energy food, trail snacks and water for each day’s run. You can replenish your food supply at shops and restaurants in the 13 towns and villages along the trail and there are many places to refill hydration reservoirs and bottles with potable water along the course. Typically the “refugios” (or remote mountain huts) don’t have anything to buy, although you will likely encounter generous hikers willing to share their bounty. 6. Money: Make sure you take some cash and/or a credit card on your run for food, lodging and those must-have souvenirs you won’t find anywhere else. (It’s highly advised to make lodging reservations in advance.) Euros are the currency used in France and Italy, but Switzerland still uses Swiss francs. However, many businesses along the trail in Switzerland will accept Euros (usually bills only, no coins) and give equivalent change in francs. 7. Language: While it will be very helpful to speak French and understand some Italian, you can get by if you only speak English. You’re bound to hear several languages as you’re greeted by other runners and hikers along the trail. 8. Resources: There are numerous online planning resources available, including Walking the TMB and Autour du Mont-Blanc.</p>]]></content:encoded> <category><![CDATA[Ski Resort]]></category> <link>http://www.qualitysport.org/SkiResort/montblanc-trail-running</link> <guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.qualitysport.org/SkiResort/montblanc-trail-running</guid> <pubDate>Tue, 23 Sep 2025 07:54:00 +0000</pubDate> </item> <item> <title>Chamonix ski resort Map</title> <description>If you like challenging steep runs that seem to go on forever then the Chamonix ski area has got plenty to keep your legs working hard.

Because the valley floor is low and the lifts rise to over 3000 metres there are plenty of possible runs offering 2000 or more metres of vertical. The largest amount of vertical is offered from the Aiguille du Midi, however the gradient on La Vallee Blanche is flat at times so it won’t offer you the high speed thrills that you’ll be looking for. From the dramatic glaciers and peaks of the Aiguille du Midi and Grands Montets to the gentle rolling slopes of the Domaine de Balme, each unique skiing area in Chamonix has something different to offer skiers and boarders. One thing's for certain, skiing in Chamonix is unlike skiing any other French resort. It's variety on and off the slopes are almost guaranteed to keep you sufficiently entertained during your stay. In summary, the differences between the two main categories of Chamonix ski area are: Low Mountain : typically gentle slopes along the bottom of the valley with easy access for beginners. These areas are suited to youngsters and the less adventurous beginner skiers/snowboarders, once you've mastered the basics on these slopes you can progress to the higher and steeper areas. Snow cover is assured for most of the season by the use of snow cannons. High Mountain : these areas are accessed via the lift system and offer a much greater range of pistes for all abilities from confident beginners to expert skiers and snowboarders, as well as being the gateway to the incredible Chamonix backcountry terrain. Chamonix's different areas are linked by a regular bus and train system that is included with the price of your weekly or season lift pass. Ski resort on the Italian side of Mont Blanc, included on MBU lift pass Courmayeur, although not strictly part of the Chamonix valley, is worth a mention due to it's inclusion on the Mont Blanc Unlimited ski pass and quick access from Chamonix town. The ski area offers spectacular views of Mont Blanc from the other end of the tunnel; a well-connected lift system operates from two locations on the valley floor at 1200m to the top of Helbronner at 3452m. The main ski area offers some 29 pistes with a good amount of snow cannons for guaranteed skiing from December to around mid-April. The pistes are well-maintaned and there is a huge number of mountain restaurants to choose from, many offering typical homecooked Italian cuisine in a cosy atmosphere. There are three main off-piste itineraries, the Arp Vieille, Cresta d’Arp and the Punta Helbronner - all of which should not be attempted without a guide or knowledge of the terrain. It is worth noting that some off-piste areas are forbidden altogether and the Italian mountain police are not averse to handing out hefty fines to people caught skiing or snowboarding out of bounds. However, there are plenty of easily accessible off-piste areas that are allowed and generally the area doesn't get tracked out nearly as fast as Chamonix, so you can still find fresh tracks even a few days after a big snowfall. Access to Courmayeur is easily done form Chamonix via the Mont Blanc tunnel, and is worth remembering that the weather on the Italian side of the Mont Blanc can be quite different to the Chamonix valley.

Millet has now sealed a partnership agreement to become the official supplier of the Company, starting in 2010. The long-term deal will place great emphasis on product testing and outdoor user feedback. Chamonix mountain guides Established in 1821, the Chamonix Guides Company is the world’s oldest guides company and the largest by membership. Every year, over 220 passionate and supremely professional guides and leaders share their mountain experience with thousands of sports enthusiasts. Since its inception nearly 200 years ago, the Company has been a driving force in mountaineering and the local community. It strives to maintain a difficult balance: being modern and innovative while respecting its traditions and history. Today, its two founding pillars still apply: work is allocated in turn, and an emergency fund supports casualties of the profession. Mont Blanc: the lab With Millet, Chamonix's guides become partners of innovation and product development. As David Ravanel, the President of the Company says: « The Chamonix Guides Company is a prestigious, historic institution. An association of mountain “pros”. Some are descended from a line of Chamonix-born guides, while others come from elsewhere to embrace the profound values of the guiding profession. But all are driven by the same passion… The guides share their values – experience of the mountains, the exact place of the human dimension at altitude, and the desire to share – with all those who dream of ascending a major modern face; or, more simply, of exploring an easy enchainment of ridges in the summer sunshine and complete safety. »</p>]]></content:encoded> <category><![CDATA[Ski Resort]]></category> <link>http://www.qualitysport.org/SkiResort/revelstoke.html</link> <guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.qualitysport.org/SkiResort/revelstoke.html</guid> <pubDate>Thu, 14 Aug 2025 07:31:00 +0000</pubDate> </item> <item> <title>Chamonix train station</title> <description>The Mont Blanc Express is a scenic mountain train route that runs from the French station of St Gervais/Le Fayet, with a steep climb to the Chamonix valley, all the way through Chamonix and Argentiere, under the Col des Montets ...</description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<img src="/img/mer_de_glace_chamonix_the.jpg" alt="To access the Mer de Glace and" align="left" /><p>The Mont Blanc Express is a scenic mountain train route that runs from the French station of St Gervais/Le Fayet, with a steep climb to the Chamonix valley, all the way through Chamonix and Argentiere, under the Col des Montets and down the other side into Martigny in Switzerland. This beautiful railway takes you through some of the most amazing views that you ever seen. The Mont Blanc Express stops at some key places in the Chamonix valley and in Switzerland. One of the largest and most frequented stations is in the centre of Chamonix and provides access to the Aiguille du Midi, the Montenvers tourist train and the Brevent cable car. The next key stop is at Montroc where you can get the Tour-Balme cable car. Another big destination is Le Buet which holds the La Poya ski lift, a popular destination for casual skiers. Vallorcine is the last stop within French borders and is another point at which you can access the Tour-Balme area. To get to the Emosson Dam, a great tourist attraction, you will need to get off at Le Chatelard VS station. Les Marecottes is the final big stop before the end of the line at Martigny. It is a cool place to visit, and draws a lot of visitors due to the alpine zoo and its granite carved swimming pool. The train runs from the early morning hours until the late evening. Here are the timetables for the St Gervais/Le Fayet - Chamonix - Chatelard - Martigny. If you are staying in the Chamonix Valley, a journey on the Mont Blanc Express is free with a "Carte d'Hote". Ask your host for this "Guest Card". This card will give you access to the whole of the Chamonix Valley public transport network between Servoz and Vallorcine for free. For more information: Timetables and schedules of the Chamonix Valley Trains: TMR SA Trains at 10.43pm and at 11.43pm from Martigny to Le Chatelard Frontiere run only on phone reservation before 10.30pm and before 11.30pm. Phone number: +41 0 27 764 12 71 Important: If you arrive at Chatelard Frontiere late at night, it is still a fair way from Chamonix and Argentiere, and there is nothing there except a small hotel. You may need to call a taxi to continue to Chamonix. The Mont-Blanc Tramway The Mont-Blanc Tramway is another gem of the Haute Savoie region. A small railway car winds its way up from St. Gervais to the Nid D'Aigle (the Eagles Nest). This train is popular with climbers on their way to climb Mont Blanc. Fantastic views of the Bionnassay Glacier and the open ground of Prarion and Mont Lachat make this a summertime must! Check out the opening dates and times of the Tramway du Mont Blanc, and the prices for a trip, return or one way. Also be sure to see the live status of the tramway. The Montenvers Train and Mer de Glace The Montenvers Train departs from its own station next to the main station in Chamonix. This old funicular climbs a steep track to a stunning vantage point above the Mer de Glace. From here, views of Les Grandes Jorasses and the Les Drus are exceptional. From the top station at Montenvers walk down to the glacier and into an ice grotto. There are many summer walking trails down to valley floor and traverses along the mountains to Plan de l'Aiguille. Check out the opening dates and times of the Montenvers train, and the prices for a trip, return or one way.

Mont Blanc reaches an altitude of 4, 810 meters, so high that it is always covered in snow-explaining why it's called the "White Mountain." Experienced climbers with a guide are able to climb to the top of Mont Blanc, although it is extremely strenuous. From Les Houches, the climb takes 10 to 12 hours. The most common climbing route is through the Aiguille du Goûter and the Arête des Bosses. After conquering Europe's highest mountain, climbers are rewarded with absolutely breathtaking panoramas from the summit. Mont Blanc is known as "the Roof of Europe" because of its thrilling viewpoints of the Aiguilles Rouges mountain ranges and Chamonix Valley. Tourists can enjoy the scenery and views on various hiking trails or by taking one of the gondola lifts. There are many options for easy to intermediate hiking around Mont Blanc. The Au Tour du Mont Blanc hiking trails include routes for all ability levels. The trails range from gentle walks to treks along more vigorous uphill terrain. All of these trails have gorgeous scenery, and some feature perfect photo-ops of Mont Blanc in the background. Admire the views and stop for refreshments at the traditional alpine huts and restaurant chalets along the way. Chamonix-Mont-Blanc Map 2 Tramway du Mont Blanc The Tramway du Mont Blanc offers a classic Chamonix experience, ideal for visitors who simply want to admire the scenery. The tramway departs from Le Fayet or Saint-Gervais. The Saint-Gervais Buffet de la Gare at the train station is a wonderful Old World style restaurant. The train journey takes about one hour and stops at Motivon village at the Col de Voza pass (there is another restaurant here), which has views over Contamines Valley, the Aiguille du Goûter peak and Aiguille du Midi peaks, and the Aiguilles Rouges mountain range. After winding around the mountain pass, the train continues towards Bellevue. Admire the scenery of pastures and forests as the tramway ascends to Bellevue at 1, 800 meters. True to its name, Bellevue offers exceptional views. Bellevue has an elegant mountain restaurant with good food and a pleasant ambience. From Bellevue, mountain biking trails lead to Les Houches village. To continue up the summit, take the 25-minute tramway ride until reaching the Nid d'Aigle at 2, 372 meters. The Nid d'Aigle is nestled under the Aiguille du Goûter mountain peak (where mountaineers set out for their climb of Mont Blanc). There are many hillside walking paths around the Nid d'Aigle including the scenic paths to Bionnassay Glacier and the Tête de Charme. The Nid d'Aigle mountain hut offers gourmet dining in a comfortable rustic setting. 3 Chamonix Village Chamonix was put on the map by two English aristocrats who discovered the place in 1741. They were enchanted by the charming alpine village called the "Prieuré de Chamouni" surrounded by awesome snow-covered mountains. The village's first inn was opened in 1770 when interest in mountaineering was beginning to take off. Soon, many visitors flocked to Chamonix to see the mystical summits. In 1816, the first luxury hotel was created, with more to follow later in the 1800s. During the reign of Napoleon III, the road access to Chamonix was improved and railways were inaugurated. The train allowed visitors an easy way to arrive at Chamonix in winter, making it a popular winter sport destination. Reflecting its history, the architecture of Chamonix is a mix of traditional and modern. Wander through the town and discover the quaint alpine chalets, lovely Baroque churches, and historic Protestant chapels.
