It was a great little mini-skiing break to the Chamonix-Mont-Blanc Valley.

I enjoyed skiing Le Tour but thought the place was lacking in investment. They could do with some more lifts. The ski runs were well-maintained and groomed, and the snow was excellent. Parking was a shambles.

Brévent and Flégère were challenging due to the awful weather, and I almost lost my skis.

Grand Montets was great. Lovely snow and great weather. You couldn’t ask for a better day.
