Saint Gervais Resort Information
In a splendid location at the foot of Mont Blanc, the spa resort of Saint-Gervais Les Bains has attracted tourists since 1806 - and today it’s popular with discerning skiers.
Set in a narrow river gorge half way between Megève and Chamonix, the landscape is impressive wherever you look!
The small Alpine town of Saint-Gervais offers diverse après-ski and an excellent selection of interesting food shops, cosy bars, nightclubs and restaurants. Every Thursday morning in Saint-Gervais village there’s a superb genuine market.
Among Saint-Gervais’ attractions are thermal baths with spa treatments, a cinema, casino, and many outdoor activities such as an Olympic skating rink and unforgettable snowshoe walks. A trip up the mountain on the Mont Blanc Tramway is not to be missed.
* The Vallen Project - gondola lift is being built that will run all year around from 2024/25. The connection is designed to reach the Bourg de Saint-Gervais center from the SNCF station of Fayet and thus relieve congestion on the road axis reaching the resort. The cable car will depart from the SNCF and bus station of Le Fayet in 6 minutes from 7am-8.30pm. An adjoining car park (stadium car park) with 200 spaces also offers a long-term parking option. The first section will arrive at the centre of the town of Saint Gervais (850m). The project also plans to replace the second section (from Saint-Gervais to Bettex) which marked the birth of the ski area in 1936. This second part of the project will make it possible to directly connect the two cable cars within a single intermediate station, thus increasing the current capacity of the St Gervais/Le Bettex cable car while smoothing traffic.
