The Terrain in Chamonix

Chamonix is a valley of six separate ski areas — Brévent, Flégère, Grands Montets, Le Tour, Les Houches, and Balme — linked by a shuttle bus rather than lifts. The Grands Montets sector above Argentière gives experts 2,000m of vertical on the Pas de Chèvre and Point de Vue itineraries, while Les Houches hosts the Kandahar World Cup downhill every January.
