SPORTS  Explore the mountains

The guide offices in Chamonix are a great source of information about trails and overnight huts, so called refuges in the mountains.

Trekking, skiing, mountain biking. With or without ropes, crampons and climbing gear. Equipment and planning all depends on what you want to do and where you want to go. There are few limits to the combinations available. It also depends on the season and on current snow and weather conditions.

The level of difficulty and the duration is up to you. From half day excursions to classic tours taking days or weeks to complete. Choose to traverse great distances or focus on a high altitude cliff range or couloir with a long untouched powder run back to town. The common attraction remains the same - the views, the altitude and the unspoilt nature.

TWO CLASSIC TOURS The Haute Route - starting in Chamonix and finishing in Zermatt. This is a true challenge that takes 4-5 days to complete. During the hike you pass through many beautiful, unspoiled areas. In late spring you might want to try to reach the summit of the highest mountain in Europe, Mont-Blanc…!
