Chamonix Sport Adventure

Heli Ski Chamonix Sport Adventure

If you want to see what European alpinism is all about, then you need to go to its heart: Chamonix, France. 

Why should you visit Chamonix?

Because just about every kind of outdoor adventure is possible there, thanks to endless steep peaks and beautiful weather. With access to three different countries and slopes of a lifetime, Chamonix is every heli-skier's dream.

All those peaks mean you’ll need to travel efficiently if you’re going to make the most of your ski and snowboard trip though, and the best way to do so is by heliskiing from slope to slope.

At first glance, heli skiing being illegal in france may make this seem impossible; but the experienced guides at Chamonix Sport Aventure are experts at doing just that.

The Facts & FAQ of Chamonix Sports Adventure

Travel, Lodging, and Packaging

Travelling to Chamonix starts with a flight to the international airport in Lyon or Geneva followed by a short train or bus ride. There are local bus lines in Chamonix to get around with if you don’t rent a car, and there are about as many options for lodging, food, and other activities as there are slopes.

Fortunately, Chamonix Sport Aventure caters to every type of adventure on (and above) those slopes.

Even if you’re just starting on your ski and snowboard journey, the Chamonix Sport team offers ski and snowboard lessons with world class instructors. If you’re up to heli-skiing, then you’ll have the choice of trips into Switzerland and Italy for groups of 4 or fewer people. They also offer trips for larger groups depending on the conditions and if the skill of all the participants matches one another. Depending on which trip you choose, the guides may also include a stop at a local restaurant in between runs. If you want to know exactly what a heli-ski trip with the Chamonix Sport team looks like, then you can see two different first person videos from one of their adventures here and here.

Gear and Safety

On top of their guide services, the Chamonix Sport Aventures team provides all guests with avalanche transceivers and the needed safety equipment for skiing on glaciers. Plus, if you need off-piste specific ski or snowboard gear then they also have partnerships with local ski shops that will get you discounted rentals.

 

Extras Galore!

If the snow or weather doesn’t allow for heli-skiing, then the Chamonix Sport team offers guides for resort and backcountry skiing and snowboarding, ice climbing, and even paragliding during winter.

If conditions allow for no outdoor adventures at all, then you’ll still have the option of enjoying world class shopping and dining while you wait for the weather to blow over as well as other recreation options like indoor climbing.

 

Book a Heli Ski Trip with Chamonix Sport Adventure Today!
