Location
About the surrounding area of Chalet LenaBoasting a magical mountain backdrop and unforgettable views of Mont Blanc, the renowned Megève resort is the ideal destination for those in search of timeless elegance and a traditional French atmosphere, whatever the season. Nestled in the heart of the Alps, the resort perfectly encapsulates the authentic charm of the Évasion Mont-Blanc ski area. Offering breathtaking scenery, easy access to a vast and varied ski terrain and a historic town centre known for its chic shopping and excellent gastronomy, Megève effortlessly exudes a feeling of laidback luxury.
Megève offers its visitors three primary ski areas, encompassing 325km of pistes in total. From Chalet Lena, the Télécabine du Mont d'Arbois is just 850m away, featuring a variety of runs in several directions, with slopes to suit all levels of experience. Meanwhile, the ski area of Rochebrune can be reached directly from the centre of Megève via the Télécabine du Chamois, or from the Mont d'Arbois area via a cable car which offers scenic views of the snowy valley below.
The Rochebrune area is home to meandering green and gentle blue pistes, making this area particularly fun for beginner and intermediate skiers and snowboarders. For those in search of more challenging runs, a network of blue and red slopes will provide plenty of adrenaline-fuelled action on sunny afternoons. The third of Megève's ski areas is Le Jaillet, where visitors will find links to the slopes of La Giettaz and Combloux and off-piste options for very advanced skiers.
The Megève resort offers excellent facilities for beginner skiers and snowboarders, located just above the town, right by the Mont d'Arbois cable car. With a wide-ranging selection of well-established ski schools and an expansive network of slopes, the resort caters for everyone, from first-time novices to seasonaires. Freestylers can work on developing confidence in their tricks by visiting the terrain parks in Rochebrune or at the top of the Jaillet cable car, while advanced skiers in search of steeper runs can make their way to the Côte 2000 or Mont Joly. Nearby Les Contamines also offers plenty of exciting options when it comes to challenging terrain.
Foodies and those in search of culinary delights will be thrilled to find a wide array of fabulous French restaurants dotted across the charming old town of Megève and its surrounding resort. Enjoy a hearty lunch on a sun-soaked terrace, after a morning spent skiing in the fresh mountain air. Megève offers a myriad of après-ski options for visitors to enjoy, ranging from cosy mountain inns to lively bars located in the vibrant town centre. For something a little different, indoor activities such as spa treatments and wine tastings make for indulgent and memorable evening experiences. The town also boasts a large sports complex with an outdoor pool that is open during the summer months, as well as enchanting streets lined with high-end shops and the beautiful Place de l'Eglise at its heart.
