Resort information Megève

Ski hire Megeve - Megeve is a well kept secret; a traditional little Haute Savoyard village in the shadows of the highest mountain in Europe, the Mont Blanc. This pretty and chic village is paved with cobble stones and automobile circulation is banned, to the great pleasure of all that come to ski and shop in well known boutiques found in famous cities around the world. The ski area boasts excellent snow cover due to a combination of the high altitude of the resort and the micro climate created by the proximity of Megeve to the Mont Blanc. Megeve is a huge ski area with 320 km of trails spread across three areas. The three areas are together known as the Evasion Mont Blanc and form only a part of Ski Pass Mont Blanc which gives access to a dozen resorts in the Mont Blanc area, including Chamonix. Megeve`s trails are largely cut through thickly forested slopes, the exception being the wide snowy slopes of Mont d'Arbois which reaches up above the tree line to the resort's highest slopes at 2350 metres. Most of the beginner areas are down close to the village and make the resort a wonderful place for first timers when snow conditions are good. When the snow level is a little higher, Jaillet is a good, quiet choice and Mont d'Arbois the most snow sure. This is also the area that holds the most attractions for intermediate skiers. Here the combination of the resort's largest ski area and steepest slopes are most appealing as is the picturesque terrain. There are many red runs in the area, most notably down to Le Bettex above St Gervais. There are several steep blacks and off piste runs particularly on Mont Joly and Mont Joux. Cross country skiers are well catered for in the valley so long as snow cover is adequate, with up to 75km of varied terrain. The ski resort Evasion Mont Blanc has two different snow parks, which makes this a great holiday destination for snowboarders. One snowpark is near the elevator at Mont Joux and one in the near Combloux. The halfpipe at Mont Joux is in very good condition due to the constant maintenance. Tip: Using SNOWELL you can rent your skis and snowboards online in advance in Megeve and save money at the same time.
