Megève: The Pinnacle of Luxury Skiing in the French Alps

Megève, Birthplace of Chic French Skiing

A legendary resort in the French Alps, Megève has embodied the perfect fusion of winter sport and art de vivre for a century. Established in the 1920s at the initiative of Baroness de Rothschild as a French alternative to St. Moritz, Megève has never ceased cultivating its natural elegance and exclusivity.

Thirteen 5-Star Palaces: A French Record

With no fewer than thirteen 5-star hotels, Megève holds an absolute record for a French ski resort. Among the most prestigious addresses: the Four Seasons Megève, the Chalet du Mont d'Arbois (owned by the Rothschild family), and the Lodge Park. Each establishment vies in refinement, offering Alpine spas, Michelin-starred gastronomy, and dedicated concierge services.

An Exceptional Ski Domain

The Évasion Mont-Blanc ski area offers 400 kilometres of runs across four interconnected resorts, with breathtaking views of Mont Blanc. Megève's slopes, renowned for their natural snowfall and impeccable grooming, appeal to beginners and experts alike. Night skiing and guided off-piste itineraries round out the offering.

The Megève Art de Vivre

Beyond skiing, Megève unfolds a unique lifestyle. The village's pedestrian streets abound with designer boutiques, artisanal chocolatiers, and art galleries. Horse-drawn carriages add a romantic touch to the snow-covered scenery. Come evening, gourmet restaurants — several with Michelin stars — welcome guests in warm, intimate settings.

"Megève is not a ski resort. It is a state of mind, a way of living winter with elegance."

2025-2026 Season: What's New

The upcoming season promises to be exceptional, with new altitude dining concepts, exclusive cultural events, and unprecedented experiences such as hot-air balloon flights over the Mont Blanc massif. Continued investment in lifts and snowmaking guarantees optimal conditions throughout the season.
