[@lukemiddleton7602]

Such a cool video, it’s so hard to find straight forward yet really informative real experiences

[@MikeandLauraTravel]

Hey, thanks so much for your positive comment - we really appreciate it!! We hope you love Chamonix as much as we did!!!

[@lianneclarke887]

We done Swiss alps last august planned loads of hikes but was a heatwave of at least 34 degrees most days so took cable cars and trains and just took walks along tops

Thanks for a good overview of hiking in Chamonix, we're hoping to visit there soon.

You're going to fall in love! I know we did! Safe travels Susan!

Thank you for this!

[@MikeandLauraTravel]

Yay someone likes our hiking video!!! Hiking videos are the most trouble to make fun and informational! Thank you Christine for making my day!

Great video. I’m heading to Chamonix on Monday and hoping to hike the Lac Blanc trail. The insight you’ve provided with this video has been very useful. I’m only there for 2 days so the smaller walks you mentioned will be just the tonic to warm me up for Lac Blanc. All the best on your future adventures😀🥾

[@MikeandLauraTravel]

Awesome! We were hoping that would help someone out! It was tough and not easy to film 😆🙌 thanks for the encouragement, and safe trekking friend!

Thank you, the app you are mentioning is very usefull. Question, what is the name of the honorable mention lake? I didnt catch.

[@MikeandLauraTravel]

I believe we were mentioning more of a park with a small lake. Promenade du Lac des Gaillands, very nice day walking area, you'll find a lot of people enjoy this area. very pleasant park!

Hi M&L, thanks for the great video. We are planning to go to chamonix as well. Curious to know in which month you were there. Hope to hear, Ronald

[@MikeandLauraTravel]

We were there this time last year. All of October actually 😁 hope this helps! Thank Ronald!

[@rhanzroams]

Thanks for this video. I'm going in September and need some ideas of where to hike. Question - is there a way to get a train that gets you closer to Lac Blanc? Asking if we don't have a full day to hike there.

[@MikeandLauraTravel]

There is not a train but there is a cable car I believe. Hope this helps! Thanks for asking Rhanz

[@Fiodor29162]

Great video ! Is the access free for all those hikes ?

[@MikeandLauraTravel]

Yes for sure Thomas! 🙌

[@geethavelayutham2334]

Thank you for this insightful video! If you don't mind me asking, do you think hiking is still an option in April? We're planning a trip towards the end of April 2023 and can't seem to find much information to help us decide if we should add Chamonix to our itinerary. Thanks in advance!

[@MikeandLauraTravel]

Great question! We didn't get the chance to be there during the month of April, but from the looks of it, there will be more rain then as well as mostly cool days. Going outside for hikes would be limited. I assume sunshine in general may be limited. We would never discourage anyone from going to such a wonderful place and there were rainy days while we were there. There is so much to do there! If you go, safe travels!!!

[@PHARALALKA]

Thanks a lot for this video guys! I'm headed to Chamonix mid-May, and was worried I wouldn't be able to hike much, given that lifts don't begin operating before June. Now I know of atleast 5 hikes I can do without needing lifts! 1 question - was that the Petit Balcon Nord, or Sud? Thanks a lot!

[@MikeandLauraTravel]

We had to double check, but we think it's the Sud. We hope you have a great time there! Thank you for the kind words!

[@PHARALALKA]

[@GodForgives]

Lovely video. Can i ask for some advice please? I will go this summer to Chamonix but i hate planing anything. a) Is it possible to camp somewhere in chamonix or around and do small treks and adventures every day while my tent and some personal belongings will be at the camp? b) Do you have any information about guided via ferratas maybe that you could share with us?

[@MikeandLauraTravel]

These are great questions Giorgos! Unfortunately during our visit it wasn't exactly camping season. Hopefully someone else can leave you a better more informational comment here so that we can all figure that out. Also, if you end up getting into these experiences please share that with us here! That would be amazing! Safe travels!

[@GodForgives]

Thank you for replying. I still have a lot of time to do my research until August. Will come back and flex if i manage to do something nice :D Keep posting those nice vids.

Hello guys, I watched all your videos from chamonix and I would like to ask you why you choose to start from the city and not to take the gondola and spend more time on the mountains? It was about money? There are to expensive? Any advice would be appreciated, we travel on a budget and is good to know before arriving there :)

[@MikeandLauraTravel]

There is an easier way for sure, and most people do come from the side with the Gondola. We stayed in Chamonix for an entire month and honestly we just love hiking. The hike is totally worth it, and actually someone just commented a few weeks back that they had done the hike and that it was amazing! You can do it! saving money for the gondola is also a plus! (No pressure) How long will you be there? It is a fairly pricey town... we would suggest shopping at a local grocery store named Carrefour market for the cheapest groceries. Thanks for asking Mariana!

@@MikeandLauraTravel only 4 nights, will be 3 full days

[@MikeandLauraTravel]

That's a fantastic amount of time to do the things you're looking to do! Safe travels! Feel free to reach out with anymore questions
