Stade Olympique de Chamonix

Stade Olympique de Chamonix, Olympic ice rink in Chamonix-Mont-Blanc, France.

The Stade de Mont Blanc is an open-air speed skating rink in Chamonix-Mont-Blanc, laid out at an altitude of 1,034 metres. It opened in 1909 and hosted the long-track speed skating events of the first Winter Olympics in 1924. The rink closed in 1961 and has not been used since.

The rink opened in 1909 and gained international recognition when it hosted multiple events during the 1924 Winter Olympics. This event established the venue as a significant location for winter sports in the Alps.

The rink hosted the long-track speed skating events of the first Winter Olympics in 1924, and the men's allround European Championships in 1926. It closed in 1961, after also staging the French allround championship that year. Its name, Stade de Mont Blanc, ties the venue to the massif above Chamonix.

The rink sits at 1,034 metres above sea level in Chamonix. It has not been used since 1961, so there are no opening hours or training sessions to plan around; the site is a historic point on the town's winter-sports trail.

The rink opened in 1909, not for the 1924 Games, and closed in 1961. At 1,034 m altitude it never became a record track, yet three unofficial women's world records were set there: Madeleine Naudin's 1:35.0 over 500 m and 5:17.0 over 1500 m in 1909, and a Mrs Hounsfield's 2:51.0 over 1000 m in 1924.
