Glad you enjoyed watching it 😊👍

[@DeniseHewitt]

I hiked the Vallee Blanche in summer in reverse from Montenvers up to the Summit of the Aiguille du Midi! Much slower than on skis so we spent a night en route at the Refuge de Requin up on the rocks above the Geant Ice-Fall! Spectacular Scenery. And then a few days later we hiked with crampons & ice-axe to the summit of Mt Blanc @ 4807m! Awesome Views!

[@topsnowtravel]

Wow 🤩 that must have been amazing!!!

I been to Chamonix in April 2019. Did snow shoeing at Vallorcine Mountain, hiking in Le Brévént and sightseeing in L'aiguille de Midi. Too bad can't do ski and paragliding. Also had to forgo to see Mer de Glace. It's a very refreshing small town and lovely.

[@topsnowtravel]

Chamonix is amazing, there is so much to do there you will need several visits to see it well. Hopefully you get to go there again!!!

Amazing footage that really makes you want to book that same ski holiday, including the off piste excursion too. Of course I’d want the exact same weather as well 🙂

[@konstantinosgeorgousakis3424]

Which ski area is the best in Chamonix (no off - piste). Amazing video by the way

[@topsnowtravel]

It depends on your ski level. Les Houches is great for beginners and intermediate skiers. Les Grands Montets for more advanced levels, it has nice steep runs. Brévent Flégère are south facing so sunny all day with amazing views. This guide might help and give you a bit more info : www.topsnowtravel.com/the-ultimate-guide-to-chamonix/

No mention of Grand Montets or Le Tour. Both areas that should be on anyones itinerary for Chamonix. You don't have to take the train after Valle Blanche to get back to Chamonix Ville. You can carry on and arrive in town, if you have the legs.

[@topsnowtravel]

Thanks for your feedback Adrian, yes definitely, Grand Montets and Le Tour should be on anyone's itinerary when staying in Chamonix

Hi How can i book the aguille de midi trip including the guide for the ridge and deep powder runs?

Amazing! I’d love to do Vallee Blanche one day but not sure my current skis would cope with the powder (or my vertigo would cope with the ridge..!!!!)

[@topsnowtravel]

Put it on your bucket list, it is a must! The views are stunning and the experience unforgettable. The walk on the ridge on itself is incredible. Be sure to go with a guide.

[@errdayadventure4969]

can i still go to this place even though i dont know how to ski?🥲 just to see the view😍

[@topsnowtravel]

You certainly can 😃 . You can access the top of Brévent gondola at Le Panoramic restaurant with a pedestrian pass. It is open throughout the day and for lunch and is the best place to enjoy the view of Mont Blanc and the Chamonix Valley. Chamonix - Brévent gondola pedestrian lift tickets return comes to 35€ per person. You can also get pedestrian gondola ticket to go up l'Aiguille du Midi and admire the stunning views there! There are plenty of winter activities in Chamonix Mont-Blanc for non skiers too. Thanks for watching!

Not for Chamonix it’s too low, go to high altitude ski resorts above 1800m in altitude like Val Thorens, Tignes, Val d’Isère, La Rosière…

[@Benzknees]

Incredibly without a Grands Montets lift for 3 years. Surprised anyone goes skiing there any more.

[@kellyyang73]

Hi , what intermediate level would you say to do the off piste? Necessary to master all blacks first?

[@topsnowtravel]

For La Vallée Blanche off-piste run, there are several routes you can take and they vary from the intermediate-friendly Classic route to the expert-only Grand Envers du Plan. You don’t have to master all blacks first if you go the easy route 😊

How does Chamonix compare to Whistler and Aspen? Anyone been to all three?

[@topsnowtravel]

Been to all 3 😊 Chamonix is a town, not a village like Whistler and is much bigger and more spread out than Aspen although the ski area in Aspen is tiny if you excludes Snowmass and butter milk. Chamonix is low in altitude and not purpose built so you don’t get ski in ski out accommodation unless you’re near Plan Praz gondola and that’s if there’s snow all the way down the bottom. Chamonix is stunning for its peaks, the views are incredible and the off-piste is world class. You do have to drive around like Aspen to access the other mountains (snowmass, buttermilk, highlands) but in Whistler, it is just 1 linked ski area. If you want something like Whistler, but with more mountain traditional style instead , go to Val d’Isère or Méribel. The ski areas are much bigger than Whistler Blackcomb or Aspen Mountains. Here is some info on both ski resorts: www.topsnowtravel.com/the-ultimate-guide-to-val-d-isere/ www.topsnowtravel.com/the-ultimate-guide-to-meribel/

[@mashod2]

What time of the season was this video recorded?

[@topsnowtravel]

It was mid January. Best time to go in the Alps in my opinion. Low season means less crowds, more fresh tracks and cheaper prices 😃

[@bhartic9554]

Do you have to have a guide?

[@topsnowtravel]

It's not mandatory to have a guide when going off-piste like skiing down La Vallée Blanche however we strongly recommend it, you don't want to fall into a crevasse. Having a local guide is really reassuring and more relaxing plus you get to find out a lot more from their experience about the area. We wouldn't have it any other way 😊

[@JustBrowsing777]

It's not Europes highest peak though as claimed here....Mount Elbrus is...Mont Blanc is the highest peak in The Alps

[@topsnowtravel]

Mont-Blanc is the highest in the Alps and European Union. Mount Elbrus is at the intersection of Eastern Europe and Western Asia. Yes, it is the highest if you define Europe as the Eurasian continental plate. No one does that unless you’re also prepared to accept that Armenia, Azerbaijan and Uzbekistan are also part of Europe. Have you seen where Mount Elbrus is located on a map?

[@JustBrowsing777]

@@topsnowtravel I know exactly where it is and Mont Blanc is officially the highest peak in western Europe but not on the continent of Europe. It's not a matter of opinion, it's facts.

Maybe we should change it to Mont-Blanc European Union's highest peak 😊 Sorry if you didn't like the video.
