Chamonix
If your Valentine is more of an adrenaline junkie who tears up the pistes rather than seeing chocolate-box scenery, incredible designer shops and luxury spas, then Chamonix is a great choice.
One of the quickest of Europe's high resorts to reach from Geneva, Chamonix is home to the magnificent Grands Montets ski area and offers endless opportunities to push your ability and test your nerve on legendary off-piste runs such as La Poubelle and the Pas de Chèvre.
Don’t miss one of the world’s most exhilarating cable-car rides up to the Aiguille du Midi (3,842m) where you’ll find Europe’s highest restaurant, Le 3842, and an exquisite view of Mont Blanc. Of course no trip would be complete without standing in the famous 'glass box' over the mountains - Such a heartracing spot that there have been several marriage proposals there!
