Temperatures rise in Cham… and so do our spirits
First of all, I’m writing this on a transfer day. Wait, did you get that? I actually have time to write a blog, ON A TRANSFER DAY! Looks like we’re running more quickly than ever as a resort, today’s felt really smooth with plenty of time to catch up on what’s been happening in Cham...
Chamonix’s weird week…
You never know what you’re going to see during après time in Chamonix. Of course, there’s usually quite a few people dancing on the tables in their ski boots in Chambreneuf. And some more sophisticated folk (like my mate Dom Briand) enjoying a vin chaud and soaking up the atmosphere at the outdoor après bar,...
Skiing, superheroes and silliness at the bdn…
What a lovely bunch of guests we’ve got at the bdn this week! Everyone is very chilled out and like minded, and all of our different groups of guests have been getting to know each other over a vin rouge or three at the bdn bar. The slopes are a lot quieter this week as...
Boom Boom Pow!
Went skiing at Flegere today, with the 20cm of snow we had over the weekend the hill looks lush, it’s so nice to see all the pow pow again! After an unsettled start to the week, it was glorious sunshine today – perfect! This is a busy week for everyone and we’ve all been pulling...

Christmas week has begun here in Chamonix! The lifts are open, the town is buzzing with lots of excited holidaymakers and the vin chaud is flowing! After a couple of days worth of decent snow, the slopes are ideal at the moment with lots of fresh powder, and as more lifts are open now there’s...
Christmas mayhem – Christmas week prices slashed
With Christmas day falling on a Saturday this year there has been a right old spate of Christmas week price cuts going on. At Alpine Elements we’ve got a great big scythe out and lopped a good few hundred pounds off many of our Dec 19th to 26th snowboard and ski holidays.
Hello Chamonix!
This week it was goodbye Les Gets, hello Chamonix as we arrived at our home for the next five months! It’s safe to say that all the team are pretty blown away by Cham – stunning mountain landscapes surrounding you, a bustling, vibrant French town with heaps of character, and unrivalled skiing – what’s not...
Alpine Elements Staff Blog -Manager’s Training Week.
What a week! Despite several lengthy powerpoint presentations (Rob’s food hygiene was a laugh a minute…) everyone remains excited to be back in the Alps and getting stuck into what will hopefully be Alpine’s best winter yet. A very tired but still smiley team arrived in Les Gets on Saturday, and since then we’ve been...
