Visitor Reviews of Chamonix

Ian C from United Kingdom writes:

Why go to Chamonix? Only go if the following apply -
1. You want a diverse, multicultural skiing experience steeped in mountaineering/skiing history and located in fabulously rugged terrain.
2. You are at least a strong intermediate skier/boarder with a sense of adventure and are willing to get off-piste, even if it's not back-country.
3. You are willing to make a few compromises in the process - unlinked ski areas, busy buses, average lift system.
4. You like a good party but the skiing comes first - it's a party town but the majority of skiers/boarders are there for the mountains not the beer.
5. You are adaptable and can change plans when needed. Most runs are above the trees so when bad weather arrives then local options can be limited. Having a car is a lifesaver as there are many other neighbouring resorts that are more enjoyable when the cloud comes down e.g St Gervais, Courmayeur

Given the above criteria, this is one truly epic ski resort. If they don't apply to you then I wouldn't bother because you will be frustrated and disappointed.
