Chamonix is not a resort for those who like to cover vast distances of well groomed pistes. But if you want to test your skiing ability and make you work your technique as you descend steep and narrow reds and blacks, it’s the right place. Don't let this put you off as there is some really exhilarating skiing to be had and most intermediates are able to ski the Vallée Blanche.

Strong intermediates should be able to ski in all Chamonix's different ski areas, though not all of the different runs. The place to start is Le Tour which has the most gentle intermediate terrain; the blues are enjoyable and the reds are far easier than those in the rest of the ski area. Bear in mind that the short runs from the top of Aiguillette de Posettes get the first sun of the day.

La Flégère is home to many reds which would definitely be called blacks in other resorts and the best runs are accessed from the top of the Index lift, with the Combe Lachenal (F12) a particular favourite. The slopes of Le Brévent have been redesigned to make them more intermediate friendly.
