To help ensure that you enjoy your holiday to Chamonix as much as possible, here is some useful information for planning your sporting activities before you go.

Getting effective sports eyewear

If you intend to go skiing, snowboarding, climbing, or snow trekking it is essential to equip yourself with comfortable, well fitting goggles or sports sunglasses that will filter UV rays and glare which is intense on snow covered slopes. Fashion sunglasses will simply not provide sufficient levels of protection for extreme winter sports.
