Most of us arrive in Geneva, and by the afternoon, we’re headed straight to Chamonix, where the adventure kicks off. After checking in and meeting the crew, we dive into a welcome reception, get our rentals set up (if needed), grab some drinks, and then it’s off to town for our first night out together. The energy is already high, and the excitement for the week ahead is just starting to hit!
Our first full day begins with morning yoga and a hearty breakfast to get us ready for the slopes. We break into groups by skill level, grab our gear, and hit the mountain! We ski and board our way through the powder, carving up the slopes, and when the sun begins to dip, it’s time for Aprés-Ski. There’s no better way to end a day on the mountain—good vibes, drinks, and stories shared with new friends.
Day two brings more skiing and snowboarding, and by now, we’re all pros at this whole Aprés-Ski thing. After another epic day on the slopes, we head back to the hotel to get ready for the night’s theme party—details are top secret until a month before the trip. With everyone decked out, the night transforms into a lively celebration, and the memories from this night alone are ones we won’t forget.
After two action-packed days, we’re taking it a bit easier with a full-on adventure day. A morning workout and breakfast are followed by a ride up the mountain on the red trolley, then a scenic gondola to explore the glacier and ice caves. We break for lunch at the famous Le Refuge de Montenvers, surrounded by the beauty of the Alps, and later, we unwind at QC Terme, the legendary outdoor spa where we soak, relax, and take in the views. It’s a day of pure alpine bliss!
The next day is another group ski day, and we’re making it epic with a themed party on the mountain. We’ll send you the theme in advance, so be ready to stand out! Between laughs on the slopes, Apres-ski, and an unforgettable dinner in town, it’s a day all about celebrating the spirit of Chamonix and our crew.
To keep things fresh, our last day is open for everything Chamonix has to offer. Feeling the call of the slopes? Grab some friends and go for those early tracks. Want to try something new? There’s paragliding, hiking, or simply enjoying the charm of town. We’ll give you all the options in advance, and in the evening, we reconvene for dinner at the hotel and a closing ceremony to bring the journey full circle.
As we say goodbye the next morning, it’s hard to believe how much we packed into a week. Friendships forged, slopes conquered, and memories that’ll last long after the snow melts. It’s true what they say—it’s not just where you go, but who you go with. Until the next adventure, because SYB trips are just the beginning of something unforgettable!

Chamonix is very safe for tourists, as it is located in a valley in the french alps. There is a very low crime. However, we suggest leaving all important items in the safe while we are out exploring - but maybe keep your Yeezys and nice jewelry at home!
With a trip of this nature, skiing can be dangerous. Make sure you feel comfortable on skis!
Tap water is safe to drink, but it is heavily chlorinated. Often, it is suggested to drink filtered or mineral water. However, this is pure preference!
This is a Chamonix mountain adventure—not a luxury ski retreat or yoga escape. Our accommodations are cozy, clean, and right in the heart of the Alps, offering the perfect blend of comfort and adventure.
