Skiing in Megeve
Megeve’s impressive ski area falls into three main sectors, two of which are linked by cable car. If you are renting a catered chalet in Megeve, then it is likely that a driving service is included, making access to the slopes simple. The most accessible (and attractive) area, Rochebrune, can be reached directly from the centre of town via the Chamois gondola.
A cross-valley cable car links to the second sector, Mont d’Arbois which peaks at Mont Joly (2353m). Also accessed from La Princesse, St Gervais and St Nicolas, as well as by a free bus from town, this is by far the largest sector with lifts and runs in several directions. Across the valley is the third sector, Le Jaillet. Separate from the other two sectors, Le Jaillet is linked to the slopes of La Giettaz and Combloux and provides some of the best off-piste skiing in the resort.
With little skiing above 2,000m, Megeve is considered a ‘low’ resort. However, the slopes are pasture land and don’t require as much snow coverage compared to the rockier slopes of higher resorts. There are also extensive snow-making facilities should the big dumps not arrive.
With a huge choice of ski schools and excellent beginner slopes above the village, Megeve is a fantastic resort for learning to ski. With an extensive network of friendly slopes, Megeve is a great resort for building confidence yet there is plenty of red (and easy black) skiing too. Chamois on the Mont Joly and the women’s downhill course at Cote 2000 provides the most challenging skiing and there is plenty of off-piste terrain to explore. Freestyle skiers can practise their tricks in several terrain parks including on Mont Joux, Rochebrune and at the top of the Jaillet gondola.
