Travel Guide Saint-Gervais-Les-Bains

This resort with a thousand faces is home to the prestigious Mont Blanc and its 4,807 m. During a stay in Saint-Gervais, you can combine the benefits of balneotherapy in naturally warm thermal water with mountain activities, especially skiing and mountaineering. The therapeutic virtues of the Fayet spring water in dermatology, rheumatology and respiratory tract treatment have been known for more than two centuries! Saint-Gervais is not only a town, it is also four villages: Le Fayet (580 m), Le Bettex (1,400 m), Saint-Gervais (810 m), Saint-Nicolas-de-Véroce (1,170 m) and many hamlets linked by an extraordinary heritage, sublime landscapes, preserved fauna and flora. This cultural and environmental heritage is precious for the commune which intends to develop and protect it to offer the most beautiful emotions. Saint-Gervais is also a ski resort whose ski area on the slopes of Bettex is linked by the slopes to the areas of Megève and Saint-Nicolas-de-Véroce; and more widely by ski-bus shuttles to the other resorts of the vast Evasion Mont-Blanc area unfolding 400 km of slopes between the fir trees and unforgettable panoramas. The Tramway du Mont-Blanc takes skiers in winter and hikers to the summits on board a unique train. In summer, there are many hiking and mountain biking itineraries, some of which are specially dedicated to the VAE, for all levels
