Chamonix
Chamonix is quite simply a magical place. Lift your eyes upwards from anywhere in the Chamonix Valley and you can’t miss the mythical peaks of Mont Blanc. Sitting at the foot of Mont Blanc, Chamonix town has become a veritable Mecca for winter and summer mountain sports enthusiasts.
Skiing and snowboarding are the main draws to the Valley in winter, whilst in the summer it’s all about walking, hiking, mountaineering, paragliding and mountain biking. But even if you’ve no aspirations to conquer Mont Blanc or ski down the steepest, powder-filled slopes, you will still fall in love with this most famous corner of the French Alps, which exudes a certain charm, is steeped in history and boasting one of the most impressive backdrops of any town you’ll visit, during any season....

We had a FABULOUS experience snowshoeing in Chamonix!
As I went with my parents, we chose to go on a gentle scenic walk. The surroundings were just spectacular, and it was amazing to be able to trek through there, like walking through a fairytale. Snowshoeing is such a great alternative (or addition) to skiing.
Kate, our guide, was wonderful- we loved her! Phil was also really great and communicative in the lead up, replying so promptly to my emails and helping me out with everything.
Definitely the highlight of our Chamonix trip!!

Le prototype du soit-disant restaurant gastronomique.
Pour commencer, un service et du personnel en total inadéquation avec les prétentions de l'établissement.
Des plats ne présentant aucun intérêt gustatif et une présentation quelconque.
Seule l'addition se permet d'être à la hauteur de l'ambition.
Il y a vraiment beaucoup mieux à ce tarif dans la vallée.

First I came in I was like "What the hell is this? I wanna leave!" Had my first shot of Tequilla and a conversation with the staff and I was like "That's not bad!"
Came in second day on Christmas Eve. Had an AWESOME time. Thanks to my buddies AND the whole Bar'd Up Team and atmosphere.
Third day - was time to say goodbye, but I will keep some nice memories ;-)
Had my first Jaeger-Bomb. Sick :)))
Wanna go back!!! :)
