Chamonix offers an array of restaurants, bars and clubs. But if you would prefer to abstain from over indulge, or prefer your evenings to be as sport focused as your days, Wednesday night offers a perfect option for you. The NOCTURNE DE SKI DE FOND is a cross country skiing race at night. Teams of two compete in the races. Each skier does one lap of the course before handing over the relay to their partner, and this is repeated several times. The “rondes nocturnes” night races are always incredibly friendly occasions with large crowds of spectators who come to encourage the racers. Well worth a visit.
