Where would you head for your stag do?<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>Prague, Dublin, Krakow, Amsterdam…! “How about Chamonix?” That’s what I thought…”Chamonix????” The French Alps, and in particular the pretty mountain village of Chamonix,\u00a0<\/a>probably didn’t even register on your radar on the list of places to take your best mate for the ultimate stag weekend.<\/p>\n

Well if you are looking for something a bit different and not your typical run of the mill stag party then stick with me to find out why you should head for a stag weekend in Chamonix for your friend’s last weekend of freedom.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

So, what do we know about Chamonix? It is a charming <\/span>mountain village famous for the Mont Blanc and it welcomes thousands of visitors from around the world each year for their luxury ski holiday in the Chamonix valley<\/a>. However, that is not all Chamonix has to offer. With summer activity holidays in the Alps becoming increasingly more popular and with Chamonix being located only 1 hour from Geneva airport you can quickly understand why it is an ideal destination for a summer alpine weekend away as well as a winter break.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

So, will Chamonix be a good enough destination to make this the stag party of the year? A venue that everyone will be talking about for years to come? If you’re looking for a little bit more that just the usual antics that come with a British stag do then Chamonix is a must visit destination in the Alps.<\/p>\n

Chamonix has a host of alpine activities on offer, an abundance of nightlife to keep you going well into the early hours of the morning, and a range of luxury summer chalets to relax in before your next adventure begins. This might just explain why my husband decided to get the boys together and head to Chamonix to celebrate his best friend’s Alps stag party in style.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

CHAMONIX STAG ACTIVITIES<\/strong><\/h2>\n

White Water Rafting<\/a><\/h2>\n

<\/a>\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

White water rafting is a perfect summer activity for a group of guys on a stag do who are seeking a fun experience which gets the blood pumping. Depending on your level of hangover you can either head down the Arve river through Chamonix town centre for some light rapids and sightseeing, or alternatively head through the Mont Blanc tunnel to Italy for some serious rapids (highest grade in Europe).\u00a0Just make sure you don’t decide on a 9:30am start after getting back at 6am in the morning, like this lot did.<\/p>\n

If you fancy carrying on the water theme then make sure hydrospeeding <\/a>and canyoning<\/a> are also on the list for your weekend stag summer adventure holiday.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Via Ferrata<\/a><\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

If, however, you are looking for something even more adrenaline fuelled than white water rafting, then via ferrata is definitely the activity for your stag party. You just better hope that everybody in the group has a head for heights as it’s not for the faint hearted. Enjoy a day of scaling the rock faces by cables and ladders, taking in the incredible views if you dare, before climbing back down to Earth to enjoy that much needed beer in one of the many bars.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Paintballing<\/a><\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Needing a quick activity for the end of the day like the boys, then opt for a spot of paintballing<\/a>. They clearly didn’t want to miss the opportunity of having some fun shooting paint balls at the groom while he was running around in as little clothing as possible. Luckily the wedding isn’t until next week, just enough time for the bruising to go down.<\/p>\n

If you have more time on your stag do in the Alps or are just a little bit nicer than my husband and his friends then some alternative summer activities I would recommend would be downhill mountain biking<\/a>, paragliding<\/a>, rock climbing<\/a> or a round of golf<\/a>. Chamonix really is a perfect destination for any adrenaline junkies out there or activity enthusiasts who want to fit in as many alpine activities as possible.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

STAG NIGHTLIFE IN CHAMONIX<\/strong><\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

With Chamonix open for business all year round and not just as a purpose built resort, it offers a great atmosphere where both locals and tourists come together to enjoy a great selection of nightlife. Here are just a few suggestions to get you started.<\/p>\n

Having finished your fun-filled activities for the day and it being beer o’clock, the first place of call would have to be Monkey Bar<\/a> as it is ideal for a spot of afternoon drinking in the sunshine.<\/p>\n

If you are a fan of ales then make sure you head to\u00a0<\/strong>MBC<\/a> for some homemade, hearty, delicious food accompanied by some fine ales from their very own brewery. If you feel that a stag do wouldn’t be complete without a few more drinks then just make sure to bump into a French rugby team who you end up spending the rest of the night with and insist on buying the stag a Jagermeister every once in a while! However, if there are no French rugby teams about you can always rely on the staff to explain their traditions and supply the stag not only with alcohol but also some rather special headgear.<\/p>\n

A few other recommended bars would be La Terrasse<\/a>, Moo Bar<\/a>, Munster Bar <\/a>and\u00a0Elevation<\/a> to name just a few.\u00a0When you are finally ready to make your way back to your summer chalet then make sure you head to Midnight Express<\/a> for that unbeatable steak, frites and fromage. Just try not to get lost and do what my husband did, ending up getting a lift home with the friendly French fire service at 6am.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n
