Chamonix Les Praz is the perfect location for a variety of mountain sports all year round. For the Flegere - Brevent ski areas the lift is approximately 100 metres directly opposite the front door.
It is not uncommon in December to March to be able to ski all the way back down to the lift station, leaving you a short 2 min walk home.
You can easily access the ski areas of Les Houches, Grand Montet, Le Tour, Vallee Blanche via the bus stop 50 metres away.
Famous attractions also include the Mer de Glace and the view from Aiguille du Midi.
Next door to the lift station is the excellent 18 hole Chamonix Golf Course. A wonderful variety of mountain walks and mountain bike trails are immediately accessible as well.
From Les Praz you can hop on the scenic mountain railway which gives you easy access to Switzerland and France. The Swiss border is an easy 20 min drive from here and of course the Italian border is on our doorstep as you exit the Mont Blanc tunnel, only 2 km away.
