Chamonix
Event agency PREFERENCE EVENTS can organise company seminars and incentive trips with a winter sports theme in Chamonix. Skiing and the mountains make it the ultimate incentive destination!
Chamonix is mostly famous as the closest town to the extraordinary Mont Blanc (4,810 m). It is not just a ski resort though since it features typical early-century architecture. This mountain town became French in 1796, and is busy all year round.
Chamonix Mont Blanc, world-famous capital of skiing country and Alpinism, is a resort for all sorts of winter sports. For your mountain seminar or skiing incentive trip, you will love the ski area and routes high up in the mountains. These are suitable for all types of mountain sports and all levels of Alpine skiing, cross-country skiing, snowboarding, snowshoeing, hiking etc.
Chamonix Mont Blanc is a wonderful place for many team-building and sports activities scheduled during your incentive trip or corporate seminar on a winter sports theme. The Aiguille du Midi is 3,842 m in altitude and its new attraction “Step into the Void” affords a 360° view of the Alps and over 1,000m of vertiginous emptiness beneath your feet in a glass box! Next, the White Valley makes for an unforgettable day of skiing in the company of a guide, while you experience the thrills and spills of climbing over the Sea of Ice.
Hôtel capacity in Chamonix provides excellent conditions for your corporate events: incentive skiing trips, conventions and AGMs, board meetings, company seminars in the mountains and so on.
Chamonix is the ski resort with the most team-building activites and an excellent value.
