CD6 Les Nants

Immediately adjoining Mont Blanc, the French ski resort of St. Gervais offers its visitors ski runs of every level. This idyllic resort, with its unspoiled character, is just around the corner from one of the major centers of alpine skiing: Chamonix. Interestingly, although the highest mountain in the Alps is surrounded by the municipality of Chamonix on the French side, the summit area belongs to the village of St. Gervais. 

As well as its 263 kilometers of pistes, multiple snow parks, cross-country ski trails, snowshoe and winter hiking trails, this popular Haute Savoie can now boast the Les Nants 6-seater chairlift, which hasn’t just reduced journey time significantly, it also makes things much more comfortable for winter sports enthusiasts. The new detachable ropeway replaces the Arbois fixed grip 2-seater chairlift built in 1977 and carries up to 2400 people per hour.
