Can I go up to Chamrousse with my baby?
Yes, you can go to the mountains with a healthy infant. However, to protect your young child from possible earache due to the difference in atmospheric pressure in altitude, we recommend that you take breaks to perform one or more “decompression” stops of approximately 10 minutes uphill and downhill. For information, there is a minimum of 1,400 meters in altitude between the valley and the resort of Chamrousse.
Can my baby take the Chamrousse gondola?
No, it is forbidden to take the gondola with a baby up to the age of 12 months, and we strongly advise you to wait until your child is 18 months old. Newborns' eardrums are fragile and the gondola cannot take a break during the 600 metres of ascent in one go (departure 1650m - arrival 2250m).
