Great little campsite in walking distance from the Chamonix city centre. Well maintained and clean toilet and shower facilities. Free shuttle bus departs from the hospital opposite to the campsite but I barely used it, it is a seven minute walk to the centre and the lift to the Aiguille du Midi. Great bakery around the corner and pizza's are available in the weekend from one of those typically French mobile pizza bakeries. The owner and his wife both speak English. And then the views... Magnificent. When I was there we had thunderstorms every day towards the evening - they have two little shelters where backpackers can cook their meals and charge their phones. read more
