Home description
Situated at the foot of Mont Blanc, St-Gevais is a quaint traditional market town still relatively undiscovered by the majority of British skiers. Our chalet is just 5 minutes away from town placed half way between the ski slopes and the town centre.
The chalet is fully equipped with all amenities and a lovely welcoming log fire. The larger resorts of Chamonix and Les Houches are 30 and 20 minutes drive away, however you can take the Mont Blanc tram up from St-Gervais and ski the Les Houches area.
You can also ski to the opulent town of Megeve from St-Gervais encompassing a huge skiing domain.
