    Megève Ski Resort

    Megève is one of the most stylish ski resorts in the Alps, with a very pretty ski area. Just over an hour’s drive from Geneva airport, Megève village is both sophisticated and chic; with smart boutiques, alluring bars and restaurants in abundance. The ski resort has plenty of old-world charm and is extremely scenic, with cobbled streets, old baroque clocktowers and cosy wooden chalets. There is also a good choice of well-appointed hotels, some of which are close to the slopes.

    The skiing in Megève is as scenic as the town itself. Most of the slopes are lined with beautiful and large wooded areas; perfect for snowy days or weaving between the trees. The ski area is suited mainly for beginners and intermediates and has a plethora of gentle green and wide blue slopes.

    Ski Areas in Megève

    Megève has three ski areas of its own with a resort height of 1,100m ranging up to 2,350m. The wider region boasts an impressive 445km of skiable pistes in total. This vast amount of terrain means there’s a variety of slopes including cruisy blues and reds and lots of tree-lined, lower slopes with excellent chalet-style mountain restaurants alongside. The main area also has modern, fast chairlifts so you won’t spend too much time stuck in queues.

    Megève doesn’t have the most challenging terrain in the Alps, however, this is more than made up for by Megève’s impressively scenic skiing, with lots of tree runs that are perfectly tailored to intermediate skiers. Beginners will want to hang around the base of the resort where there are some nice flat nursery runs. The area is also generally much more traffic-free than its neighbour Chamonix.
