Summer Holidays in the French Alps

The French Alps are not only to be enjoyed in the winter months. At Ski4Less, we offer summer holidays in the French resort Les Contamines-Montjoie, ideally located in the Mont Blanc region. Sitting at 1,164m, Les Contamines is an authentic mountain village situated in a beautiful open valley. Two-thirds of the land is occupied by an extremely diverse Nature Reserve, offering breath-taking landscapes and a multitude of activities such as hiking, mountaineering, canoeing, canyoning, and biking. For those wishing for a more relaxing trip, there are also leisurely walking routes.

The 30-acre Patrice Dominguez Leisure Park is the largest in the Mont Blanc region. With 20 activities on the programme there is something for everyone, including but not exclusive to; a heated swimming lake, tennis, mini-golf,  tree-top adventure playground, pedalos, horse-riding, rock climbing, donkey rides, biathlon, archery, trampoline.

Les Contamines is a great base for your activities and a gateway to many lengthy and shorter hiking routes. With over 120km of marked hiking trails, your walks will be diversified and varying in difficulty. For those who are avid mountaineers, Chamonix is just around the corner – renowned as the home of alpine mountaineering.

Not only an ideal summer and winter activity resort, Les Contamines also boasts plenty of shops, bars, restaurants, banking facilities, tourist information, and reliable bus and taxi services.

Without a doubt, this village is the perfect place to combine both alpine adventures and relaxation in a fantastic setting!
