Les Contamines-Montjoie, facing Mont Blanc
Perched at an altitude of 1,164 metres in the Val Montjoie, the village of Les Contamines-Montjoie exudes a distinctive charm typical of Alpine villages that have preserved their identity. Here, traditional stone and wood architecture shapes the landscape, whilst church steeples, alpine farmhouses and time-honoured chalets tell the story of a valley that has always looked towards the mountains.
Just a few kilometres from Saint-Gervais-les-Bains and the Mont Blanc massif, Les Contamines offers a remarkable natural setting, dominated by the region’s iconic peaks. The village also serves as the gateway to the Contamines-Montjoie Nature Reserve, one of the largest in Haute-Savoie, a true sanctuary of biodiversity where Alpine flora and fauna thrive.
This preserved authenticity remains the hallmark of a truly exceptional quality of life, both rare and highly sought after. The lively village centre brings together shops, restaurants and amenities, ensuring everyday convenience and an inviting atmosphere all year round. Families are particularly drawn to this charming, intimate resort, where friendliness and a gentle pace of life are an integral part of the mountain experience.

An exceptional ski area between forests and panoramic views
In winter, the Contamines-Montjoie ski area offers 120 kilometres of slopes that wind through the heart of this vast playground, stretching from 1,200 to 2,500 metres in altitude and offering endless possibilities, whatever your ability. With long panoramic runs facing Mont Blanc, technical descents and winding forest trails, the ski area boasts a remarkable diversity of landscapes and terrain.
Cross-country skiing enthusiasts can also enjoy the stunning Planay Nordic area, renowned as much for its exceptional natural setting as for the quality of its trails. Snowshoeing, ski touring, sledging and even dog sledding completes the winter offering, allowing visitors to experience the mountains in every possible way and at every pace.
Beyond Les Contamines, skiers can also enjoy the vast Évasion Mont-Blanc, one of the largest ski areas in the French Alps. This extensive domain brings together several iconic resorts such as Megève, Saint-Gervais, Combloux and La Giettaz, offering nearly 445 kilometres of slopes served by over a hundred lifts, with spectacular views of Mont Blanc.
