Local Guide

The Location

  • Megève, which sits at 1,100 meters in the hollow of the Mont Blanc massif and is easily the chicest ski resort in the French Alps. With the village itself dating back to the 13th century, it became fashionable in the early 20th century thanks to the Rothschild family. After the First World War, Baroness de Rothschild visited the picturesque village and decided it was the perfect place to create her dream of a French ski resort that would rival the Swiss favorite St. Moritz. Seduced by its cobbled streets, traditional farmhouses, and the spectacular views from the Mont d’Arbois plateau, she commissioned Megève’s first hotel and ski lifts in the 1920s, and Megève fast became a magnet for aristocrats and financiers.

Where to Eat

  • La Dame de Pic – Le 1920 offers a great lunchtime experience at the weekend or a great dinner. Set in the Four Seasons Megeve, Mont d’Arbois, you can choose from A La Carte or a set menu with either a wine or non-alcoholic pairing.

  • Les Grands Crus de Fondue is located near the center, in the M de Megève Hotel, this is a fondue experience like no other, where guests can select their vintage cheeses for the ‘Grand Cru of fondues’.

  • Le Refuge du Calvaire is a little mountain bistro on the way to Le Mont d’Arbois, with comforting food and a cozy setting. When the sun shines, you can enjoy the terrace and its views. If you want to walk up from the village, you can take the Chemin du Calvaire path.
