Lessons are available in several languages including English and 9 certified High Mountain Guides are also on the staff. Our personal contact with the ski school ensures that our clients receive the best service.

Specialist tuition in free-style skiing, off piste adventures and carving can also be arranged. Group lessons are limited to a maximum of 10 skiiers (€8 per hour) with semi-private and individual lessons (€30 per hour) also available.

For professional ski services other than traditional lessons, both the ski schools and the Bureau de Guides can arrange off-piste guides at around €55 per person per day or €35 per person per half-day.

The Vallee Blanche is an adventure not to be missed and we are perfectly placed to enjoy this fantastic experience here in Les Contamines. It is an unforgettable experience for any reliable intermediate skiier with good control and the right gear in the company of a qualified guide, available from the village. Depending on snow conditions, you can ski from the Aiguille du Midi at 3842m back to Chamonix over crevasses and glaciers. It’s spectacular and challenging day’s skiing.

Also through the ski schools and mountain guide offices, accompanied snow shoeing trips cost around 18 euros per person per half day and invaluable 3 hour sessions focusing on « Snow Knowledge » can be arranged from 18 euros per person.
