Wedger Posted May 10, 2010 Author Report Share Posted May 10, 2010 (edited) There is a river running down through the valley and several ponds and lakes within striking distance including of coarse Lake Geneva. I've not sussed the fishing out yet as my only visit so far was to a family wedding at Maison-Jaune. The crack would be to drop into Geneva airport, hop on a 'mountain drop off' minibus - pre-arranged and your there in about an hour.

Wedger Posted May 10, 2010 Author Report Share Posted May 10, 2010 (edited) Chamonix has an Olympic sized swimming pool in its Sports Centre. For swimming in lakes, there are two groups of lakes, both 20 minutes from Chamonix, which offer a variety of outdoor sports as well as great barbecue sites at night - completely hassle-free. There are rules on what you can do and where at each lake, but just do as the locals do. Lakes or areas of lakes are designated for Windsurfing, Fishing or Swimming. Kayaking (for unknown reasons) is banned at these lakes. Car parking is heavily police-patrolled so theft is not a problem.

Wedger Posted May 10, 2010 Author Report Share Posted May 10, 2010 Just to add..... Helen and Leighton know their wine, food and local entertainment very well! Check out their web pages! If you go to 'the wedding' you will see Sheila and I on entry with the Happy Couple. If you fancy a Chamonix wedding check out the possibilities.
