Heavy Snowfall Across The European Alps

All across the Alps there has been heavy snowfall with more forecast throughout the week. When you are looking for that luxury ski vacation, you can't help picturing great powder as part of the package. Whilst no operators can guarantee the weather, what we can assure you here on the Luxury Ski Chalet blog is that we will only feature great accommodation ran by people who really care about the service and customer satisfaction.

Snowfall Across The Alps

Here in the Chamonix Valley we have again woken to another snowfall and a chance to wrap up warm and enjoy the majestic scenery that we so enjoy as a consequence of living in this beautiful valley. I guess this last point is one of the main reasons, and there are certainly many, that Chamonix is so famous and well loved.

I consider myself privileged in the respect that I have been lucky enough to have skied all over Europe and America and yet this Valley stands out above them all. There are of course some great resorts such as Aspen, Banff, Courchevel, Meribel,St Anton, Val d'Isere, Verbier, Whistler and Zermatt, but none are as pretty and as dramatic as Chamonix (although Zermatt is one that comes very close).

I guess luxury for us goes a little further than just the finer things in life, and a great luxury ski chalet, but having the chance to wake up at any point in the year and have one of the world's most magical views - the Mont Blanc Massif and its 4,000m jagged peaks that are visible from the valley floor is I guess just a luxury that exist here and probably unrivalled anywhere else.
