The Off Piste in Chamonix is world renowned, and the famous Vallee Blanche run will add some real adventure to your weekend. We advise doing this with a guide, but the thrill and experience is unbeatable in any snow conditions.

Although Chamonix is an exciting mountaineers resort, it has some excellent nursery slopes and one of the most dedicated and efficient ski and snowboard schools in France. Furthermore, the nursery ski lifts are largely free for beginners (please check this with resort). Our Hotel Bdn is only 2 minutes from the nursery slopes and Brevant ski lifts.
