Mountain landscapes - Chamonix Mont-Blanc
Chamonix is a busy mountain town nestled beneath two ridges of high alpine peaks in France, including Mont Blanc, Aiguilles du Dru (Les Drus), Dent du Géant and Aiguille Chardonnet. A mecca for mountain sports such as climbing and mountaineering, trekking and paragliding, it is popular also with visitors seeking out the spectacular views. I’ve been blessed with glorious sunshine when I’ve visited Chamonix, either working - on a trail or mountain running photo shoot - or spending more leisurely time with my wife trekking between alpine refuges and rewarding ourselves with fresh blackberry and apple tart, washed down with copious amounts of tea and coffee. Whatever the purpose, Chamonix is a classic location to visit in the French Alps - a great place to spend time and enjoy the experience and the views amongst the mountains.
