mountain climbing,... A nautical center with an indoor pool and an Olympic outdoor
swimming pool, a gymnasium, 5 sports facilities, tennis courts, a skating ring, an 18 hole
golf course, a casino, a bowling, 3 movie theaters, 5 discotheques, more than 300 stores
and 100 restaurants ensure a growing success to the station which is second to none.
Moreover you will be able to discover the Alpin museum, the older part of the city, the
Glacier of the Bossons, the Brevent, the Aiguille du Midi Observatory, the Mer de Glace
riding the Chamonix-Montenvers train, the Aiguilles Rouges National Park.
Also unique in Chamonix is this easy-going atmosphere of a genuine small mountain town,
alive all the year round and where the people of the valley and the tourists from all over
the world rub shoulders in a friendly way.
CHAMONIX MONT-BLANC is so cosmopolitan and so genuinely «Chamoniard» at the same
time.
Last but not least, it is easily accessible. It is perhaps the only French ski resort
of the Alps which has a railway station; Genevas international airport is 90 km away
and Annecys is 100 km away, both by motorway.
The Mont Blanc Tunnel connects Chamonix with the valley of Aosta, with Italy and beyond to
the Eastern European countries.
