Skiing Info
*Real photo from the 2023 trip! White out powder day!
Skiing in Chamonix gives you snow piles of options. You have the four main resorts Les Grand Montets, Brevent/La Flegere, Le Tour (Balme) and Les Houches with plenty of smaller resorts in the area that offer novice ski school instruction.
If going full send is your style, this is the home of the notorious Vallee Blanche tour route!
All of these resorts are easily accessible from our hotel via the FREE (emphasize "FREE") public transportation. Our trip is a "choose your own adventure!" In other words, FYOW2L (find you own way to lifts) from the hotel. So, find some friends, grab your family, define your challenge, and have fun!
Here are the Piste Maps to the more popular Resorts in the area!
Roughly 3K from access to Brevent/ Flegrere access (Piste Map)
Roughly 5K from access to Les Houches Ski area (Piste Map)
Roughly 12k from access to Les Grands Montets (Piste Map)
I will provide additional local transportation information and points of interest as we get closer to our adventure.
Ski School
Here is a link to a ski school in the area that has options at all of the main resorts. There are other options out there, this is just the most popular one that I could find.
Ski Passes
Unfortunately Ski Passes are not included. Keep in mind, ticket prices adhere to "Dynamic" pricing. Book them early and online to save! There are two Passes, the standard pass that gets you access to the main resorts and the unlimited pass that gets you access to ALL of the lifts and resorts in the area. For more information use this link to discover passes and their pricing.
Rentals
I highly recommend getting your equipment prior to going on the trip, typically its cheaper and much better quality to what is offered at the mountain. The Kelly MWR does great season rentals! Here is the link to the MWR Site that has all of the details! If you do not get equipment prior to the trip, there are many options to get skis/boards in town and at the base of the mountains. Be on the lookout for future rental options!
Not Skiing?
No worries! Chamonix has an awesome downtown with beaucoup des shops and restaurants! You also always have the option to get a pedestrian ticket up to any of the mountain summits! Or hop on the world-famous Aiguille Du Midi Cable Car and check out the breathtaking views of the Mont-Blanc!
Getting around
The PSC bus gets you from Patch Barracks to the Hotel, after that you are on your own! I highly recommend using public transportation! Its easy and its free if you have a lift pass! The hotel is just a short 5-10 min bus ride from downtown Chamonix! The concierge at the hotel knows the Patch Ski club and will be ready to help you navigate Public transit to wherever you want to go!
A note from the Webmaster: My family and I did the Chamonix trip last year and I can say the skiing is fantastic!! However the public transit can be kind of tough for folks who are visiting for the first time. The best thing to do is use GPS. It will lay out the routes, bus numbers, and times. Each evening I would try and coordinate with folks who already know the lay of the land;)
The Hotel Aiguille Du Midi
The Patch Ski Club has been coming to the Aiguille Du Midi For the past 10+ years! They know us and they love us! They are more than prepared to take on 30-40 Americans for the long weekend! They are very helpful and are able to provide you with all sorts of information! They offer a wonderful breakfast each morning and we will also have Dinner the second two nights! They also have a bar area that is a great spot to hang out after dinner and have a few drinks! The hotel has a Ski room to store all of you gear so dont worry about that either!
