Hotel in Saint-Gervais
Activities in Saint-Gervais-les-Bains
It would be an understatement to say that Saint-Gervais is a whirlwind of possibilities. Skiing with a view over Europe's highest peaks, enjoying the thermal spa, fine dining in all its variations, mountain biking, hiking, paragliding or even walking on ice, an introduction to mountaineering, canyoning or why not via ferrata: the year-round activities leave you spoilt for choice . On your own, as a couple, with family or a group of friends, Saint-Gervais is the perfect base camp to find the stay that's right for you whatever the time of year. Also to love is the atmosphere of this village nestled at the foot of the Haute-Savoie mountains, with its friendliness and authenticity .
When it comes to skiing, everything is possible with 450km of slopes in the Mont-Blanc Evasion ski area . From Le Cœur des Neiges hotel, the town's free shuttles drop you at the bottom of the Bettex ski lift in 5 minutes.
From there, you can access all the ski areas linked to Saint-Gervais, Saint-Nicolas de Véroce, Les Contamines, Megève, Combloux and La Giettaz . With a beginners area, spots for experienced riders and marked off-piste areas on the Mont-Joly side, there’s skiing for everyone.
The thermal spa is without a doubt the other must-do activity in Saint-Gervais. With relaxation workshops, saunas, steam baths, a herbal tea area and indoor pools at the foot of the Bonnant gorge, Mont-Blanc’s thermal spa is an address to double-underline in your notebook of adventures in the Haute-Savoie region.
And if you’re looking for even more pursuits, Sébastien, your host at Le Cœur des Neiges hotel recommends an aperitif in an igloo in Megève , an introduction to ice-climbing and discovering the farms in the surrounding area . With its rich agricultural and breeding, cultural and architectural heritage, Saint-Gervais is an open-air museum.
Take the time to go and meet Jean-Pierre, Flavie and Pierre at the Roches Fleuries farm, to see a hockey match at the Olympic ice rink, or discover the baroque art treasures starting with the Saint-Nicolas de Véroce church.
