If you are looking for bread, this is the closest place from the apartment. Good bread (don't keep it for too long though), they also sell sandwiches and some home made energy bars. Perfect before taking off for a trek!

Essentials

Super convenient because it's 2 min away from the apartment. It's one of the most expensive grocery stores in Chamonix though. If you have more time, it's better to go to Carrefour or Super U.

A little bit further from the apartment than the Spar (2 min by car, 9 min walking), the prices are cheaper there and you'll have more choice.

Entertainment & Activities

The starting point to ski on the Aiguille des Grands Montets. A great place for good skiers. Careful, this is the most difficult place to ski in Chamonix (many red and black slopes). If you are a beginner, chose another spot!

The farthest place to ski from the apartment. But the place might be less crowded than others in the high season as it's at the end of the valley. You'll find easy slopes there. And you'll be skiing at the Swiss border!
