The original French luxury ski village, created by the Rothschilds as a French answer to St. Moritz. Megève is more about cobbled streets, horse-drawn carriages and Michelin tables than vertical thrills.

The medieval village sits in the valley; gondolas at Chamois, Rochebrune and Le Jaillet carry you up. True ski-in/ski-out is limited to a few hotels on the lower slopes.
The skiing is gentle and sunny, spread over three forested mountains that flatter intermediates and families more than they challenge experts. But people really come for the village: a pedestrian medieval centre of luxury boutiques, fine restaurants and grand hotels, with the Mont Blanc looming over it all. Bring your appetite as much as your skis.
