Cable car and chairlift giving access to lots of great hiking trails and Via Ferrata
In summer the cable car at Flégère and the Index chairlift operate, taking you up to an altitude of 1,894m and then on to 2,396m at the top of the Index.
Mountain bikers can use the cable car but sadly are no longer allowed on the chairlift.
Hikers can head to the Lac Blanc from here, which is well worth the trek and you're bound to come back home with some cracking photos.
Lower down the mountain you can walk down to Chalet Floria and grab some refreshments. You'll know if they're open as they fly a flag to let you know.
During the summer you might find hundreds of trail runners passing through the area as part of the UTMB week, which sees races of varying lengths and difficulty set off around the trails of the Chamonix Valley.

Once summer arrives there are several walking and mountain biking trails that start in Les Praz.
Les Praz also has its very own renowned 18-hole golf course which includes a club house, driving range and Pro shop on site.
'The best photo class you will ever take', is Teresa's bold strapline for her unique photo walk classes, which take place in the incredible outdoors of the Chamonix Valley and offer an opportunity to photograph the major mountains and viewpoints.
