SAINT GERVAIS-MONT BLANC | 1400 - 2350 m                                                     Evasion Mont Blanc
Saint-Gervais, a thermal spa village dating back to Roman Antiquity, has also been a tourist mecca since 1806. So in this resort, one of the most chic in France, a 19th-century flavour reigns that is bound to bring you some unique sensations. The resort is enhanced by a fleet of modern ski lifts that jars somewhat with its charmingly quaint architecture. The lifts make it possible to channel the many skiers winding their way through the multiple pistes of a domain linked to Megève. Saint Gervais ski resort special negotiated prices
