Winter 23/24 ski season build up
Ski season build up time, it's snowing all over the Alps and early winter ski season forecasts are looking good. We're excited to bring you the snow report from Chamonix this season as it happens
Here we are back for another season and eagerly awaiting the arrival of the winter ski season. It's getting colder in the resort with hard frosts now and we’re seeing good snowfall already across the Alps over about 1800metres. The high peaks are taking on that majestic freshly snow clad look once again.

First snow
The first snow has arrived in Chamonix with more forecast this week. Up to 50cm of snow is expected over the next few days. Picture above from the tourist office was taken this week in Flégère.
