The Skiers' Guide to Megève

I lived in Megeve for 3 months and was surprised that spring skiing is not bad at all so feel free to go a little later in the season when everything is getting cheaper and you’ll still find some great skiing at the top of the mountain. Regarding restaurants in the mountain I would only really recommend la foile deux so you can party at the mountai. Other than that most mountain side restaurants are very expensive. Finally If cost doesn’t affect you then the best ski in skii out hotel will be the Four Seasons

Brilliant family friendly resort. Quiet slopes if you go out of french term time. Amazing variety of restaurants both on and off the slopes and plenty of other things to do off the slopes as well. Great range of slopes and off piste skiing.

Very boujee place. Family friendly, with a twist of luxury. Incredible places to eat on the slopes and in the village. Hospitality is 5* whereever you go. People are lovely too.

Great resort but more for watching not for skiing. Helps if there’s snow and ices over quickly in March in the afternoon

great resort quiet until boxing day then went mad but easy to get to other resorts like chamonix and even into italy to find other slopes will be returning for sure next february

Great resort for beginners and intermediates. End of season has lots of fake and slushy snow especially on piste closer to the village level.
Up the mountains are still good for snow.

Such an amazing resort! Would definitely be back! Slopes were super quiet and we got on rides almost instantaneously.

Beautiful resort, with a real alpine feel! Slopes werent too busy and a good choice of different levels

Two sides to this resort, quite smaller side of Le Jaillet skied by the Genevois. Lots of trees and if you know the mountain we'll, some great mid level off piste.Other side of the mountain is accessible from the village centre lifts and a car park up one of two mountains: Rochbrine and Mont d'Arbois. Most of this is owned by the Rothschilds. French old guard and weekenders from International community /Geneva. Much busier slopes, but better connected and some good off piste at 2000.Food here is amazing, but so are prices. Book for lunch and find the spots where the ski guides /ESF eat for best value

Megeve is a beautiful resort with a great ski area. Its not high but the location usually means its snow coverage is pretty good. Plus they do a fantastic job of maintaining the slopes. The ski area works pretty well for groups and families as its all well connected and has slopes suitable for all abilities. Beer and food is a little pricey but there is a great selection of mountain restaurants if you know wheee to look. Lifts could do with updating and during peak times in the season can cause queues. Not far from the airport so makes a great indulgent weekend as well as a top place for the week. Having visited a LOT of times Ill still be going back.

Great resort for intermediate skiers and boarders but not loads of black runs or off piste.In term of the town, the resort is just too expensive for drinking and there is a complete lack of fun apres - other than folie deuce up the mountain, but its a fairly long way to ski back down to town, and wasnt very busy when we went.Good place for a couple of well priced drinks is the tabac.Few ok bars in town but all very expensive - 15-16 for a large beer generally.

Great resort for families and non families great access to other resorts Plenty of restaurants on the slopesGood lifts and well manned to ensure swift access to each ski point start

Recently returned from Megève with my children and my friend and his family. Stopped outside the town but the busses were efficient although not very regular. The town is beautiful and relaxed. The ski area is great for families and beginners to intermediate. We had perfect weather but the mountains arent the highest so could suffer at warmer, less snowy times.

Very beautiful resort and very family friendly. Easy to access lifts from local Airbnbs and not too busy. Some lifts a little slow and old but its an amazing experience there nevertheless. Would suggest this holiday to anyone looking for a nice family resort.

Pretty ski resort with plenty of things to do in a gorgeous setting. Plenty of ski options for all abilities and fantastic views of Mont Blanc. great choices for food on the slopes and in resort.

Megeve is a very beautiful resort, the village is very picturesque and there are many upscale restaurants and bars. lots of very cool mountain restaurants etc. there is also a large sports centre with an ice rink, pool and spa. I recommend a visit to I'deal for lunch, you can go on foot via the mont d arbois telecabin if you are not skiing. quite a bougie resort. very easy access from Geneva.

Above average all round good skiing for all abilities, very good for families. Lovely village I have skid here at ast 15 times and very we found areas that we hadnt skid before

Great resort for skiers of all levels with wide range of runs. Great cafes and restaurants on the slopes and of course Folie Douche every afternoon.

Snow can be a little hit and miss but been twice in January and there was enough to entertain us on a long weekend.

Megeve centre is very nice but expensive. St Gervais is as nice but much cheaper to stay and has great restaurants and night life.

Overpriced for what it is, town is always very busy with lots going on and majority of people not on the slopes except for at the folie. Close to lots of other resorts giving you lots of options but all pretty low. If theres fresh snow theres a fair bit to do, without fresh snow its a nice family resort with easy wide runs for all levels but take a picnic if you dont want to spend a fortune every day. Juliet side quieter with a few ski tour options too and mountain huts more reasonably priced.

I had an amazing time in Megeve, the last afternoon I spent 1 to 1 with a ski guide and we had an absolute blast. We skied every black in the resort and linked them up with some off-piste runs under some of the chairs. It really pushed my limits which was really rewarding. The Christmas tree was decorated with Swarovski crystal and looked gorgeous. We ate out several times and the options were great if a little on the expensive side. My only slightly negative observation was that some of the runs were more difficult than the grade suggested. Top spot for a high end ski holiday
