Chamonix’s Climate

Chamonix is set at a much higher altitude than many alpine resorts - correspondingly, the winter climate is much colder. Summers are surprisingly warm, however, and quite wet - there is ample precipitation all year round, whether snow in the winter or rain in the rest of the year.

Chamonix in Winter

Chamonix is world famous as a ski resort, and this of course means a very busy winter season. Snowfall begins in the village in late November or early December, and earlier on the higher slopes. The ski season lasts until the end of April, but most of the village snow will have gone by mid March.

It’s bitterly cold in the winter months, with average daily highs of around -2°C. Overnight lows can fall to the minus teens level, and cold snaps of around -25°C are not unheard of.

If you’re visiting Chamonix in the winter, you’ll need full winter gear, even if you’re not intending to ski.

Chamonix in Spring

Spring can be a gorgeous time to visit Chamonix. The ski season is still going strong at this time, but down in the village it’s carnival time, with processions and events. Chamonix is slow to warm up, and daily highs in March will be around 7oc with overnight lows at freezing point. By May, however, temperatures may touch 20°C during the day, and the alpine flowers are blooming.

You may need a waterproof jacket, as spring showers are common, but spring is a great time for off-piste skiing and for hiking or biking in the lower routes as they gradually become accessible towards late April and early May.

Chamonix in Summer

Summer is hot in Chamonix - during June, July and August, daytime highs can top 26°C, with overnight lows in the low teens Celsius. Summer rainstorms are common, as are thunderstorms. All of the lifts are open at this time, and the higher trails become open for walking, climbing or mountain biking. August can be exceptionally busy in the village, but the height of summer is the perfect time to enjoy the alpine flowers.

Chamonix in Autumn

Autumn can be spectacular in Chamonix, as the larch trees turn the landscape golden. You’ll feel temperatures tumbling, with daily highs reaching only 7-8°C by the end of November. Autumn months can be misty, but when the sunshine breaks through these quieter months are perfect for rambling and for watersports.

Chamonix Hotels

What to pack and wear in Chamonix?

Due to the cold temperatures during the winter months and the relatively cold nights all year round, warm clothing is recommended when visiting Chamonix, especially if you plan to take part in the different winter sports on offer.

During the day time in the summer months light clothing is more than enough due to the hot temperatures and long clothing is recommended during the spring and summer months due to the slight chill in the air; having an umbrella or waterproof clothing with you when visiting Chamonix is also very wise.
