Green Stuff

Whoopee! or 'Youpi!' as they say in France - the Chamonix Tourist Office was granted the environmental ISO 14001 on 18th June and the Compagnie de Mont Blanc (who are responsible for the lift network) should obtain theirs by the autumn of this year.
The people of Chamonix are well aware of the valley's wonderful natural resources and the need to protect them; they are working together to raise awareness and encourage sustainable and responsible tourism


What is the Greenest way to travel to Chamonix?  - see Guardian writer Richard Hammond's answer.

We at Collineige are also committed to protecting our environment.  We no longer print brochures each year, we use a paperless system whenever possible, recycle all waste and cycle to work where feasible.
