About the chalet

Montroc lies just outside the picturesque alpine village of Argentiere in the Chamonix valley. Argentiere is situated towards the head of the valley and is surrounded by the dramatic and rugged peaks of the Mont Blanc massif. The traditional mountain feel of the Savoyard village offers a warm and cosy welcome with a great variety of local bars and restaurants to experience. There is a newer side too with all the modern amenities and services, supermarket and nightclub and the shuttle buses run into Chamonix every 15 minutes.

The Grands Montets ski area in Argentiere provides some of the most challenging skiing in the world both for intermediates and experts and Col de Balme ski area (Le Tour/ Vallorcine) is a huge ideal for skiers and boarders trying it out for the first time.
