Argentiere piste map Skiing in Argentiere & around the Chamonix Valley
Skiing in Argentiere and the Chamonix Valley is all about exploring this huge area with some 500km of pistes spread across the various sectors so you will definitely need your piste map.
The highlight of any ski holiday in Argentiere is the 24km Vallee Blanche glacial route starting at 3842m! However, if that sounds a bit daunting, the Chamonix Valley offers every type of terrain possible with gentle beginner and intermediate slopes at the Grand Montets and in Balme above Le Tour.
The other great thing about Argentiere is that you will always have great views of the glaciers flowing down the valley slopes from Mont Blanc - a view you never seem to get tired of looking at.
With the full lift pass, you can also ski in...
- Chamonix
- Les Houches
- Courmayeur, through the Mont Blanc tunnel
- Verbier, in Switzerland
For some more serious skiing adventure, you can always do some heli-skiing on the Italian side of Mont Blanc (banned in France) in Courmayeur, which is organised by Evolution 2.
