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
Chalet de l'Ours is well located for access to all the Chamonix valley, as well as being just an easy 10 minute walk into the centre of Chamonix itself for shops, restaurants and bars. The luxury Chamonix property is located in a quiet lane too and benefits from a large garden ideal for families. At the end of the lane, there is a bus stop outside the hospital, or a 5-7 minute walk to the end of the main road brings you to the main bus station for access throughout the Chamonix valley.
