About Chamonix - Wellness and Running Holidays
Chamonix is a busy Alpine town, nestled in the shadows of Mont Blanc, and steeped in mountaineering history. Whether you're coming to detox and relax, or you're here to run, the views cannot fail to inspire you, calm you, and envigorate you. There's nothing quite like the mountains to put things in perspective. Chamonix may be known for being extreme, but mixed in with the dramatic scenery and jagged peaks is an amazing sense of calm. If forgetting the stresses and strains of your daily life is a priority, we think there's no better place. Whether you want to simply sit and watch Mont Blanc glow pink at sunset. Or you come to challenge yourself with a run on high Alpine trails, Chamonix will have a magic effect on your wellbeing. Detox & Wellbeing Holidays | Running Holidays

What to Expect - Chamonix Weather
Chamonix's mountain weather is sometimes wild and unpredicatble - it's all part of the charm! In general, late spring and early autumn are the most stable - with warm sunny days and cool evenings. June and September are our favourite months, while the hotter mid summer can bring afternoon storms. Bring a few warm layers and waterproofs alongside your summer kit!
