Two Ski Levels – One Fantastic Social Holiday!
We understand that everyone learns at their own pace, which is why we're offering two different ski groups running alongside each other during this short break.
Beginner Ski Group – Learn to Ski
Never skied before? No problem!
Our beginner group is designed for complete newcomers and those with very little skiing experience. With three half-days of professional instruction from a dedicated instructor, you'll learn the fundamentals of skiing, develop your balance and technique, and gradually build your confidence on the snow.
You'll be learning alongside other Cold Fusion guests of a similar ability, making the whole experience relaxed, supportive and great fun.
Beginner Progression Group – Improve Your Skiing
Already tried skiing but want to improve your technique and confidence?
Our progression group is ideal for those who have mastered the basics but aren't quite ready to tackle more challenging slopes independently.
With three half-days of dedicated instruction, you'll work on improving your turns, control and overall technique while exploring more of Chamonix's fantastic ski terrain.
Both groups will have instruction suited to their abilities, before coming back together for the social side of the holiday.
Ski Together, Après Together – The Cold Fusion Experience!
At Cold Fusion, we believe a great ski holiday is about much more than just skiing!
After your morning lessons and time on the slopes, both our beginner and progression groups will come together to enjoy Chamonix's legendary après-ski scene.
We'll organise a sociable après-ski itinerary, visiting different bars around Chamonix, many offering fantastic live music and afternoon entertainment.
You'll also have the opportunity to meet up with other Cold Fusion guests staying at our second chalet in the Chamonix Valley, bringing everyone together for an even bigger social group.
Whether you're celebrating your first successful ski run, sharing stories from the slopes or simply enjoying a well-earned drink with new friends, there's always someone to socialise with.
Come on your own, learn together and leave with new friends!
Your Evenings – Great Restaurants or Cosy Nights by the Fire
One of the best things about staying at Mont Blanc House is its fantastic central location, giving you complete flexibility to enjoy Chamonix's lively restaurant and bar scene.
Fancy an evening out?
We'll happily organise restaurant reservations for guests who would like to dine together, choosing from some of Chamonix's lovely restaurants. It's a great opportunity to continue socialising with your fellow skiers over dinner and drinks.
Prefer a relaxing night at the chalet?
That's absolutely fine too!
With a pizza takeaway just 20 metres from the chalet and plenty of other local food options, you can simply grab something delicious, head back to Mont Blanc House and relax in front of the open fire with your fellow guests.
There's no pressure to join every activity. Our Flex service gives you the freedom to enjoy your evenings however you wish, while still having plenty of opportunities to socialise.
Please note that après-ski drinks, entertainment charges where applicable, and evening meals are not included in the package price.
