SO, WHERE CAN WE GO TO CREATE THESE BEAUTIFUL MEMORIES?

The Chamonix valley is one of the most beautiful spots in the world – vast mountains, beautiful high mountain lakes and awesome small villages. Here are a few examples of places we can visit for inspiration:

Plan de l’Aiguille, Grand Balcon Nord and Mer du Glace

This is a great choice for a full day photo shoot and my personal favourite. We start around 8:30 – 9:00 by taking the Aiguille du Midi cable car to its first stop. There we will spend some time taking photos with the beautiful early morning light before taking the Grand Balcon Nord hike towards Mer du Glace. The hike is possible for kids 5 and up and takes about 3 hours. Nothing too strenuous and the views are absolutely mind blowing. The hikes ends at the Mer du Glace train station where we can take some photos with the glacier. Descend towards Chamonix is via the train.

This can be booked as half day session without the Grand Balcon Nord hike.


Animal Park Merlet

Park Merlet in Les Houches is an amazing place for a family session. Situated at an altitude of 1,500 m above the valley of Chamonix, the Animal Park offers a breath-taking panorama of the Mont-blanc mountain range. Merlet Park invites you to immerse yourself in a vast space dedicated to animals for a leisurely hike through the forest and sunny meadows, discovering several ancient traditional mountain chalets along the way. The unusual closeness with many animals is surprising and would nearly make you forget that they actually live in the wild.

This is a great choice for a half day session in the morning or afternoon and can be combined with a short hike to become a full day outing.


Plan Praz and Brevent hike

In summer, Plan Praz is the departure point for great excursions including hikes to Lake Cornu, Grand Balcon Sud and Brevent summit. It also has a take-off area for paragliding. The view towards the Mont Blanc mountain range is unbelievable! This is a great choice for a short photo session, a half day photo shoot and can be combined with a number of hikes for a full day photo adventure.


AccroPark in the Gaillands

This is the greatest tree adventure park in the Chamonix valley, right at the foot of Mont-Blanc! There are more than 80 treetop elements and obstacles for the youngest to the most active : giant zipline, wobbly bridges, tarzan swings, quick jump, … Great choice for a half day photo adventure, easily accessible from Chamonix with a car or bus and a great fun for the whole family!

There are many, many more places we can visit and explore. The Chamonix valley has something for everyone. Get in touch and we will make a awesome custom photo adventure for you that you will cherish forever.
