Sustainable mountain destination
Let's work together to protect our natural resources
A region that is both exceptional and fragile
The Chamonix Valley is nestled in an exceptional natural setting. Perpetual snow, glaciers, alpine pastures, forests, high-altitude lakes, and wetlands—wherever you are, these landscapes are right before your eyes. The richness of these natural environments is characterized by a remarkable diversity of flora and fauna.
Local authorities recognized the unique nature and fragility of their environment early on and took numerous actions to address it. Today, this responsibility has been assumed by the Chamonix-Mont-Blanc Valley Community of Communes, which aims to balance environmental protection, human activities, and public awareness by working with its partners to protect, manage, and enhance natural areas.
