About Evasion Mont-Blanc:
Nestled at the foot of the legendary Mont Blanc, the Evasion Mont-Blanc Ski Area is a jewel of the French Alps, combining charm, authenticity and breathtaking scenery. Linking the resorts of Megève, Saint-Gervais, Les Contamines-Montjoie, La Giettaz, Combloux and Cordon, this ski domain offers over 445 km of slopes surrounded by forests, traditional chalets and panoramic views of the highest peak in Europe.
With altitudes ranging from 1,100 to 2,350 metres, Evasion Mont-Blanc promises a varied and accessible skiing experience. Beginners will appreciate the gentle slopes and family-friendly areas of Saint-Gervais and Combloux, while intermediate skiers can enjoy long, scenic descents through alpine pastures in Megève or Les Contamines. For thrill-seekers, the off-piste terrain around Mont Joly and the steep runs of Rochebrune provide the perfect challenge - all against the dazzling backdrop of the Mont Blanc massif.
Beyond the pistes, the region celebrates art de vivre à la française. In Megève, horse-drawn carriages, Michelin-starred restaurants and chic boutiques evoke timeless alpine elegance. Families can explore snowshoe trails, ice rinks or relax in the thermal waters of Saint-Gervais. Each village retains its own character, from the authentic charm of Les Contamines to the stylish ambience of Megève, creating a ski area rich in both culture and emotion.
