Megève

The charm of the village

Megève is known for its high quality of life and its sense of style. It has managed to preserve its charm and enjoys a privileged location facing Mont Blanc. Only one hour’s drive from Geneva, Megève was made famous by the Rothschild family, who made the village a tourist destination in the 1920s. The opulence of that period exists to this day. Megève continues to offer an unparalleled vacation experience, be it for winter sports or after-ski.

In the heart of the village, the historic buildings have stood the test of time. The beautiful old farms of the surrounding pastures have inspired superb modern chalets. There is always something going on in the bustling village centre. However, visitors can retreat to absolute peace and calm in magnificent chalets in the surrounding hamlets. Mont d’Arbois, for example, is perfect for the golf course and provides easy access to the heliport. Rochebrune is ideal for those looking for ski in/ski out access to the best pistes. And the Jaillet basks in the sunshine and offers spectacular views in any season.

Tourism in Megève

A wander through the village’s lanes, to the sound of horse-drawn carriages, reveals luxury boutiques, award-winning restaurants and the most luxurious spas. Megève offers a mosaic of neighbourhoods filled with wood and stone chalets, which are typical of the valley.
