Nestled among some of the most prestigious ski resorts in the world, Megève stands as a living embodiment of the French art of living. Radiating authentic charm, discrete elegance, and an alpine ambience of medium altitude, it has earned its moniker as the "Little Switzerland of the Alps."
Megève is celebrated for its culinary delights, boasting esteemed establishments like Flocons de Sel, Le 1920, and La Table de l'Alpaga. The town's upscale shopping boutiques and brand stores in the centre add a touch of sophistication, while its renowned ski resort and panoramic vistas, offering some of the most exquisite views of Mont Blanc, contribute to its allure.
At the heart of Megève's soul lies its captivating village centre, where pedestrian streets converge around the iconic Place de l'Église. As twilight descends, the scene transforms into a postcard-perfect vision. Swarovski-adorned Christmas trees, the illuminated facade of the Allard shop, horse-drawn carriages, and the mesmerising play of lights on the church façade create an enchanting tableau that has enticed Megève enthusiasts for generations.
Nestled at an altitude of 1000m, Megève thrives as a mid-altitude mountain village, blending its rural roots with a chic ambience influenced by the Rothschild family. Megève's allure emanates from its well-preserved architecture – a blend of farmhouses that seem frozen in time or luxuriously renovated chalets. Megève is strategically positioned, serving as a crossroads linking Chamonix, the Mont Blanc region, and Val d'Arly, which connects to Albertville, Grenoble, and Lyon. The Megève ski domain spans 324 hectares and boasts an extensive 400 km of ski slopes serviced by 86 lifts. The landscape transitions from alpine meadows to fir forests, offering vast expanses that immerse you in the mountains.
Megève's timeless charisma owes itself to a fundamental element: its existence predated the advent of skiing. Unlike some other ski destinations, the evolution of tourism has not marred its architecture, heritage, or charm; rather, it has enhanced them. This grants Megève its esteemed membership in the exclusive "Best of the Alps" resort club.
