The absolute symbol of the "French Art de Vivre," Megève is unique in the Alpine landscape. Created in the 1920s by Baroness Noémie de Rothschild to rival St. Moritz, it has preserved its medieval village soul while becoming an internationally prestigious destination. Located in Haute-Savoie facing Mont Blanc, Megève is not a purpose-built "resort" but an authentic town with timeless charm. Its entirely pedestrian center, rhythmic with the sound of horse-drawn carriage bells and lined with luxury boutiques and art galleries, offers a romantic and chic atmosphere found nowhere else.

Pleasure Skiing Facing Mont Blanc: Evasion Mont-Blanc Domain Megève is the beating heart of the Evasion Mont-Blanc domain, offering 445 km of slopes through picture-postcard landscapes. Unlike high-altitude rocky resorts, skiing here is experienced "gently" amongst fir trees and century-old alpine farms, with Mont Blanc as a permanent backdrop. The ski area spreads across three massifs with varied profiles: Mont d'Arbois (wide and sunny, linked to Saint-Gervais), Rochebrune (technical and wooded), and Le Jaillet (wild, facing the Mont Blanc range). It is a paradise for contemplative and family skiing.

Capital of Alpine Gastronomy If people come to Megève to ski, they stay to eat. The resort is recognized as the capital of mountain gastronomy, home to 3-star Michelin restaurants (such as Emmanuel Renaut's Flocons de Sel) and a multitude of gourmet mountain huts. The après-ski is elegant: here, no loud parties, but tea rooms, jazz (the famous Megève Jazz Contest), and world-class spas. Megève is the ultimate destination for those seeking the perfect blend of sport, culture, and hedonism.
