My home away from home is situated in Les Houches. Les Houches is a ski-resort and is located 6 kilometres from Chamonix with a ski domain which extends from an altitude of 950m up to 1900m. There are several bars, restaurants and cafes down in the Les Houches valley as well as up on the mountains, all reasonably priced offering various forms of entertainment along with great food.
Easy access to all the surrounding areas via the Chamonix Bus service which runs every 20 minutes 'free of charge' and with only a 10 minute journey into Chamonix itself, you can't complain.
Les Houches is also the start/finish of the popular Tour du Mont Blanc, a 7-10 day walk around the base of the Mont-Blanc Massif which takes in France, Italy and Switzerland.
Below you will find a collection of photos dating back to December to more recent ones. Oh and Les Houches is not pronounced as spelt, as I've learnt myself. Smiley face.
