This is the ultimate resort for the experienced and the off-piste cracks. The views on the Mont Blanc are amazing, as long as the weather is fine. The ski area is not well connected though and the lift system could use some upgrading. The night life is very lively; there are many nice bars and clubs. If you want to meet some pretty rich women (or men) then Chamonix is the place to be!. Although Chamonix is definately not a budget destination, there are a few budget accommodations around. Anyway, any serious skier should visit this place once in their life.
