The ⛷ Domaine Skiable des Planards, a two minute walk from the centre of town and with its own 🅿️ FREE parking, is one of Chamonix’s two Beginner ski areas (the other being at the Savoy slopes, connected to ⛷ Domaine Skiable de Brévent).

In addition, it is the site of the year-round 🛷 Chamonix-Luge Alpine Coaster, set within the 🌈 Parc des Attractions de Chamonix (re-opens in April).

Chamonix-Luge Alpine Coaster

Opened in 2011, to replace the former summer toboggan, the 🛷 Chamonix-Luge Alpine Coaster can be enjoyed over the winter season! A track on rails 1300m long, with jumps, turns, and spins of 540° / open to everyone 3+ years. During the February holidays, on some days there is usually ⛷ night-time skiing and access to the luge until 21h . . .

le Snooc

⛷ Domaine des Planards allows you to try out the snooc – a new way to enjoy sliding on snow!

The snooc is a French invention – a lightweight hybrid contraption, somewhere in-between a luge (sledge) and skis . . .

It is available in two models: the descent model and the touring model (which turns itself into touring skis). All you’ll need to enjoy a descent are: ski clothing, gloves, and « après-ski » snow boots / note: for children 10+ years;
