How to get there
The Chamonix valley sits at the foot of Mont Blanc in the heart of the French Alps, displaying glaciers and breathtaking views of the snow capped mountains all around. Chamonix valley is ranked one of the top skiing and boarding resorts in the world and while Chamonix is famous for skiing in the winter, you may be surprised to hear that the summer time is just as popular - walking, hiking, rock climbing, paragliding, water rafting, mountain bike trails, even an 18 hole golf course! Not to mention major sports events such as the Mont Blanc Marathon and the Ultra Trail du Mont Blanc.
Getting around
Sauberands 18 apartment is situated on a quiet road close to the centre of Chamonix town. Place du Mont Blanc bus stop is 500m away, for access to all the ski areas of the valley, and the nursery slopes of Les Planards are a 5-10 minute walk away (700m). It's only 5 minutes from the apartment to Chamonix's pedestrian high street too, where you can choose from the many restaurants and bars, and the nearest large supermarkets are only a couple of minutes away in the car, or an easy 10 minutes on foot.
