top tips needed for 1week in Chamonix please

Harland71

Hi guys,
me and a mate are starting to look into a week in Chamonix in june or july this summer.
traveling from north east england the route looks like flights to geneva then train connections.
does anybody have any recommendations on:
- travel
- accommodation
- bike-hire 'v' taking our own bikes(preferred option)
- any websites to drop onto for any of the above
- any reasons to drop chamonix for somewhere: better, cheaper, easier to get to etc...

All advice greatly appreciated,

Cheers,

Harland.

I'm going skiing in Chamonix this week.

Try Nick or Jo at www.chamonixallyear.com

I booked my apartment with them, and they've been very helpful. Lots of info on their website.

Oh, but chamonix (France in General) is going to be expensive this year. Another Alpine country (Austria, Italy) may prove cheaper.

Hi Talk to Ben at www.itsalldownhill.co.uk/ had a great time in Chamonix with them showed us some of the best riding spots and best of all he has a minibus and trailer to take you to some great nearby trails! :P
