Now that the Chamonix ski area is due to close  & thoughts are turning to summer & next winter season in the Chamonix valley, we just wanted to say a Big Thank You to all our guests at Chalet La Moraine who have recommended friends & family.

Chamonix had more snow last week, with fresh powder on Wednesday. It’s snowing today on the Chamonix slopes again & there’s still around 3.5m on the upper slopes. There’s also more snow forecast into next week!

Chamonix is a great choice for spring skiing, with the lifts not closing in the Grands Montent ski area in Chamonix until May!

Chamonix & Argentiere received 20cm of new snow last week on the upper slopes, topping up the pistes. There is still 3.6m of snow on the upper slopes so great spring conditions in the Chamonix valley.  The ski areas of Brevent & Flegere (which are linked) & the Balme area in Le Tour are all open until 22nd April & the Grands Montets area in Argentiere doesn’t close until 8th May.

We still have availability for the week of 14th April at Chalet La Moraine, so if you want a last minute ski break at a luxury self catered Chalet, give us a call.

Did you know that Chamonix has a beautiful 18 hole golf course designed by Robert Trent Jones Senior.
