Location
About the surrounding area of Chalet LeonThe stunning Megève ski resort is the ideal destination for those searching for timeless elegance and a traditional French atmosphere, whatever the season. The resort perfectly encapsulates the authentic charm of the Évasion Mont-Blanc ski area, offering breathtaking scenery, vast and varied terrain and a historic town centre known for its chic shopping and excellent gastronomy, effortlessly exuding a feeling of laidback luxury. With a treasure trove of exceptional facilities and outdoor activities to enjoy throughout the year, Megève delights visitors time and time again with its picturesque Alpine meadows, dense forests and majestic mountain vistas.
Megève offers its visitors three primary ski areas, encompassing 325km of pistes. From Chalet Leon, the Télécabine du Chamois is roughly 800m away, providing direct access to the slopes of Rochebrune. Rochebrune is home to meandering green and gentle blue pistes. For those searching for more challenging runs, a network of blue and red slopes will provide plenty of adrenaline-fuelled action on sunny afternoons.
Visitors to the slopes of Rochebrune can access the spectacular Mont d'Arbois via a cable car that connects both ski areas, offering scenic views of the snowy valley below. A variety of pistes run in several directions, with slopes to suit all levels of experience. The third of Megève's ski areas is Le Jaillet, where visitors will find links to the slopes of La Giettaz and Combloux, as well as 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.
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. Megève offers many après-ski options for visitors to enjoy, ranging from cosy mountain inns to lively bars 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.
