Located in the upper part of the valley, just 8 kilometres from Chamonix on the way to the Col des Montets and Vallorcine, Argentière is a village where time seems to have come to a halt. You will be able to appreciate its traditional architecture, its baroque church and its nineteenth century chapel. The surroundings are stunning: the village lies at the foot of the impressive Argentière glacier and is overlooked by legendary peaks such as the Aiguille Verte.
Perched at 1,200 metres altitude, Argentière is the ideal place to enjoy the mountains in all their majesty and splendour. Close by, you will be won over by the picturesque charm of typical little hamlets such as La Joux, Tré-le-Champ, Montroc and Le Lavancher, ideal locations if you wish to escape the hustle and bustle of the centre of Chamonix.
Argentière is particularly renowned for its situation at the foot of the legendary Grands-Montets ski area, which extends up to 3,245 metres in altitude. It is a great favourite amongst strong skiers, steep slope and powder hounds, as well as freeriders from all over the world, who wouldn’t exchange their place in the first Grands-Montets top cable car for anything on earth!
