Everything about the Chamonix lift pass — types, prices, where to buy, and how to get the best value.
Pass Options
Chamonix offers two main lift pass options. The right one depends on how long you're staying and whether you want to ski in Italy or Switzerland.
💡 Money-saving tip: For a standard 6-night ski holiday, the Chamonix Le Pass is almost always better value unless you specifically plan to ski Courmayeur. The Mont Blanc Unlimited's extra cost (≈€90) is only justified if you'll use the cross-border days and the Aiguille du Midi.
