]]>If you are into mountains and winter sports, don’t look further than the French Alps. A particularly great place is Chamonix, which sits at the base of Mont Blanc, Europe’s tallest mountain. Chamonix is considered one of the best ski resorts in Europe while offering all sorts of opportunities for other adventurous outdoor activities.
The region of Normandy is a real playground for adventurers. This is especially the case with its coast, which, thanks to strong winds, offers perfect conditions for sailing, surfing, kiteboarding, and windsurfing. Also, the region’s diverse landscape will encourage you to go hiking or cycling.
Those interested in witnessing some spectacular sights should head to Pyrenees National Park. Its breathtaking valleys are perfect for hiking, while its rivers provide some of the best white water rafting in this part of the world. Other adventurous activities include rock climbing, trekking, and mountain biking.

]]>Le Brevent is a mountain that sits at 8,284 feet above sea level opposite the Mont Blanc massif and can be reached from Chamonix via a four-hour walk. There is also a cable car if you want a slightly shorter walk. Once at the summit of Le Brevent, there are amazing views across the valley of the summit of Mont Blanc and the surrounding mountains.
The walk from Chamonix to Mer De Glace is one of the quieter hikes from Chamonix, so you can find a bit of tranquility on this one. It is a surprise that it’s not more popular however, as it takes in some stunning woodland, great mountain views and culminates in an aerial view of the glacier known as Mer de Glace, which means ‘sea of ice’.
For this walk, you will need to take a cable car to Aiguille Du Midi from Chamonix. This takes you to an elevation of 12,605 feet, the closest you can get to Mont Blanc’s summit without hiking. After taking in the spectacular vistas at the top, you can take the cable car down and choose to hike down from Plan de l’Aiguille to Chamonix, which takes around three hours.
