I have recently returned from a trip to Chamonix with a small group of intermediate skiers and felt moved to provide a report of our experiences.

This was our third trip to Chamonix together in the week leading up to Christmas and it was, by a 'long way' the best ever. The conditions this year could only be described as awesome. However, I should point out that if you are a visitor from the UK, skiing in Chamonix just now (or any resort in Europe for that matter) is a double-edged sword.

First - the resort.

Le Compagnie du Mont Blanc has started to invest heavily in the resort and we benefited from the new gondolas and chairs in La Flegere, Brevent and Les Grandes Montets. They really have made a difference and it was good to see the pistes in excellent condition and well marked. We're not yet up to the off-piste Chamonix experience, but given the early season conditions, I'm sure there was plenty of fun to be had by all.

However, we did find enormous disparity between the resorts regarding the costs of food, drink etc and information. Prices at Les Houches (no longer part of the Mont Blanc ski pass) were off the scale although Gnd Montets was perfectly acceptable.

We decided to visit Courmayeur via the Mont Blanc tunnel as we were encouraged to do so, but found that our ski passes were not acceptable at the tunnel toll to get the (significant) discount for the journey. We also encountered an unexpected delay of 45 mins going through the tunnel due to 'maintenance'. Also, once at Courmayeur we had to upgrade our passes at the ticket office to gain access to the pistes that took a further 40 minutes. This all seemed inappropriate as the whole point (surely?) of getting the full Mont Blanc pass would be to provide unhindered access the pistes. One of our party had bought his Mont Blanc Unlimited ski pass online before our trip but found that it wasn’t valid at Courmayeur without the receipt! All very painful.

The big thing we all must deal with just now is the GBP - EURO exchange rate. The prices in Chamonix were so much higher than any of us had anticipated or experienced before that we were left with a limit on our enjoyment simply because we could neither afford, or justify the horrific prices for food and drink when out and about in the evenings. Try going out for a night and shelling out £6.00 for a pint (£10.00 in 1 venue) £8.00 for a shot, £8.00 for a starter and see how long your money lasts?

So, in summary - Chamonix remains, as always, a very special resort with truly breathtaking scenery, awe inspiring descents and a varied skiing experience. Just expect, for this season at least, to have to pay for it.
