While Chamonix is best known as a ski and summer adventure destination, with a list of activities to get your adrenaline pumping, the rich variety of styles of architecture in Chamonix might surprise the casual visitor.
This weekend the Aiguille du Midi cable car and Montenvers train in Chamonix both opened. They became the first lifts to start again since all ski resorts in France closed down due to Covid-19 in March 2020.
As government updates continue regarding the approach to the Coronavirus (COVID-19) we would like to confirm our position.
[Update 05 May] The Aiguille du Midi and Montenvers lifts will open on 16 May
The Compagnie du Mont-Blanc has confirmed that both the Aiguille du Midi and Montenvers lifts will open again on 16 May.
It’s surprising how often we are asked if Chamonix has a train station. The good news is that it does and it’s well serviced from France and Switzerland, as well as along the Chamonix valley.
