A bit about Les Houches

Les Houches, located in the stunning Chamonix Valley and just 4 miles from Chamonix itself, offers a serene and scenic ski experience at the foot of Mont-Blanc. This picturesque resort is renowned for its breathtaking panoramas, traditional Alpine charm, and wooded slopes, which are particularly popular in bad weather when other areas may close due to avalanche risks. Les Houches caters to skiers of all levels, with 35 miles of runs ranging from beginner zones to the legendary World Cup downhill ‘La Verte des Houches.’ The village features cosy restaurants, a relaxed après-ski scene, and family-friendly activities like tobogganing, snowshoeing, and ice skating. For those seeking adventure beyond skiing, options include paragliding, farm visits, and even helicopter tours around Mont-Blanc. Its proximity to the high-altitude Grands Montets ski area adds further appeal for those looking to explore the wider Chamonix Valley. Fun fact, Les Houches is home to one of only two men’s World Cup downhill runs in France!
