Saint Gervais les Bains Resort & Transfer Guide

Meet Saint Gervais les Bains - one of the oldest and most famous ski resorts in French Alps.

Saint-Gervais is a pretty alpine village, lying on the mountain slopes at an altitude of 850 m above sea level. There are more than 50 trails that are divided into traditional zones: black, green, blue and red, depending on the complexity of the route.

In Saint Gervais pride, goodness, calmness and dimensionality are most valued. There is nothing surprising in this - the resort is more than 200 years old, and it is already clearly "aged."

For many decades, there has developed its own special culture of rest, which determines the entertainment of local tourists: in the morning skis and walks, at lunch - hiking in boutiques and shops, in the evening - playing bridge, roulette and poker in casinos or balls and official receptions (yes, yes, as in the 19th century!). This is the place where you can feel like a bourgeois in the full sense of the word (by the way, the construction of the resort was once the hand and purse of the famous Rothschilds).

Ski Resort Location

Saint Gervais lies in the lower part of the Chamonix valley, above the confluence of the Avr and Bon-Nan rivers. Since ancient times, these lands were famous for their mineral springs and the purest rivers that escape from the Mont Blanc massif. In the 19th century, the sanatorium of Saint-Gervais-les-Bains was built here, which gave rise to a modern resort and the development of the Chamonix Valley as a whole. Now, apart from the balneological complexes themselves, the skiing recreation infrastructure is intensively developing here, the stimulus of which is the picturesque mountain range of Mont Joly (2525 m), combining the skiing areas of Megeve, Saint-Gervais and Saint-Nicolas de Veros, and also providing convenient access to three of the four ski areas of the Evasion Mont-Blanc area and other resorts in the region.

Ski Resort Essentials

In Saint Gervais, the routes are laid very conveniently and allow you to quickly change the level of complexity as the descent process, and simply moving from zone to zone. Going down the western slopes, you can get to the slopes of Megeve, and after slipping along the eastern slopes you can reach the cozy Bon-Nan valley, whose slopes are covered with beautiful coniferous forest. In the upper part, south of the Mont Joly peak, lies a fairly high mountainous area of skiing, which has, oddly enough, "green" level routes from which beginners can observe the beauty of the Mont Blanc massif, and experienced skiers - warm up before the "red" trails of the western slope.
