Camp site review : Camping du Glacier, Argentiere

Forget Chamonix overcrowded and overrated Argentiere is a far better base and this site just on the Chamonix side of the villages is a little gem. Its not the flattest of sites but the soil is well draining and easy to peg into, there is a small play field with volleyball net and a table tennis table (bats free you just buy a ball).

The toilet blocks are at the entrance with separate toilets, showers/washing and washing up, and handwashing/toilets areas.

The site is also serviced by a grocers van, a morning visit from a baker and pizza van (good value) twice a week

Only the lack of a credit card payment option lets the site down a little. (please note five years o this may now be different)
