"Bringing budget chalet accommodation to an exclusive resort. Unique in Chamonix, we have integrated hostel-style ambience and guesthouse hospitality within a traditional alpine setting, a short walk from the centre of town. The small group of chalets in which La Source is located, were built before the surrounding forest was declared a National Park - making them the only secluded and forested Chalets this close to Chamonix town. This also gives them arguably the best views of the Mt.Blanc...

Chamonix Travel Tips & Suggestions

There is lots of off-piste from the Brevent and Flegere lifts, great powder to be had. Getting there, use Chamexpress.

Do not use Alpybus. They will stand you up and you will miss your flight!

If you are a good skier and love offpiste, then Chamonix and Verbier are one of the best places in Europe. No argument about it.

Chamonix is off piste-skiing. If you want the piste go elsewhere. There aren't really any pistes. It's about ski touring with easy access, it's about mountaineering type stuff. And don't come if you're not fit on crevasse and avalanche rescue, the weather, or want to learn that. Unless you want to skip the skiing and get into the nightlife -- fine!
Comment by A.M
If it is on-piste boarding/skiing you are after, Chamonix may not be the place for you. I am halfway through a season here and am just beginning to discover that it is all about the off-piste. That is the big deal with Chamonix.
Comment by Bill
Went there in January 05 and had a good time. It was a little thin on the snow, but that would be expected at this time of the year. We had a good first day and second day because there were freshies. It has steep and rugged terrain and I am looking forward to going next year, but probably in feb or march. Excellent new years with people in the square, fire, fireworks, and drunks pushing each other in shopping carts. Not a police officer in site, they would have had the cops in force if this was in America.
Comment by Adam
After two seasons of Chamonix I can never imagine being bored by its varied and steep terrain. After a week in Tignes I felt like I had covered almost every inch of the mountain even though it is obviously more interconnected.

It is spread out but that's because it's not a purpose built resort, it's an old town with an atmosphere you wouldn't find in any other. Oh, and the off piste is amazing...

I'm half way through my first season in Cham and it's a great place to in terms of snow and apres ski... it's got the best places to eat at 2 am - Midnight Express and Poco Loco!!
Comment by JJ
I have no idea what this person is talking about. Maybe they were in a different resort. Chamonix is the only place to go, when it comes steep extreem of peist boarding, it also hosts a huge range of awesome slopes for all abilities. With its rad of piest and laid back atmosphere it's the only place to be...

Everything in Chamonix, is truely remote from any skiing. I wouldn't go back, mostly because Chamonix as a ski area is over-rated. It's lots of small ski areas spread out. Lifts are slow, crowded, and you have to take a lift up above the tree line before you can take another lift to begin skiing. Go to Tignes instead...
