MegèveTourisme_DDDA large proportion of French people say they are drawn to the mountains in summer. So, to satisfy that desire to breathe fresh air in the middle of mountains as far as the eye can see, in the middle of summer, perhaps you could let yourself be tempted by Megève. A destination synonymous with freedom and escape.

Megève, an authentic village with a sporting heritage, is ideally situated at the crossroads of several Alpine massifs, with direct access to the Aravis, Mont-Blanc and Beaufortin ranges, offering a range of verdant landscapes.

Alpinism in Megève means hiking through unspoilt pastures, marvelling at the architecture of alpine farmhouses, allowing yourself a break by a high-altitude lake lulled by the bells of nearby cows and the whistles of discreet marmots.

From the center of the village or from the top of the lifts, there are 300 km of marked trails for families, friends or couples to explore.

The guides of the Bureau des Guides de Megève invite you to discover the diversity of the mountains through themed hikes, individual or group, so that everyone can discover the many secrets of the mountain environment in a setting that is quite simply exceptional.

In the heart of the Cote 2000 cirque, the Bureau des Guides invites you to observe chamois and the surrounding fauna with a telescope, on a hike accessible to all. You’ll be amazed by the variety of species and their techniques for adapting to the particular conditions of life at altitude.

You can also discover the medicinal and culinary uses of mountain plants. Recognize some edible wild plants, and learn how and when to pick them. Build on your knowledge and discover how they have been used for centuries.

Hiking, relaxation, fun activities – everything you need for the best possible summer.
