Updated

It is going to be a busy week in Chamonix and with the sun shining and the skies clearing a very enjoyable one too.

This week's report comes from the Chamonix golf course, which is an eighteen hole course in Les Praz.The course is open to the public from April until November and has a relaxed and friendly attitude towards novices and pros alike. There is a shop on site where you can buy or hire equipment and a bar and restaurant where you can enjoy a drink and some food after your round. If golf is not for you then you can enjoy the peaks of the surrounding hills without the slog of climbing then yourself. The lifts in Flegere, Les Houches and Le Tour are all now open. So if you fancy a mountain bike ride with gravity on your side why not load you bike onto the telecabine and fly down the various trails of Chamonix? Finally this Saturday sees one of the biggest parties of the summer as the bars and clubs of Chamonix embrace live music and a carnival atmosphere for the annual Fête de la Musique. Make sure you are there and make sure you have Sunday off!!!
