Chalet Etoile Nordique

Skiers can make the most of the Chattrix chair lift located 5 minutes drive away to explore the local pistes and those of the Évasion Mont-Blanc area, and outside the ski season, hikers and bikers can enjoy the many marked trails.

About the property...

The Chalet Étoile Nordique is a three-level chalet accommodating up to 10 guests (eight adults), featuring four bedrooms, two shower rooms and an independant studio.

Upon entering on the ground floor, you can store your outdoor gear in the ski room before stepping into the spacious open-plan living area. Here, you'll find a fully equipped kitchen with a central counter and a large dining table. An elegant gas fireplace separates this area from the lounge, which is furnished with comfortable sofas.

French doors open onto a furnished terrace, leading to the summer pool, accessible from May to September.

This floor includes two bedrooms: a double room with direct access to the balcony, and a charming dormitory for two children. These two bedrooms are separated by a shower room with double sinks and a toilet.

A mezzanine under the eaves houses a second double bedroom, a toilet, and a games/TV room. This space might just become the favorite hangout spot for teenagers! The whole property is connected to ultra-fast internet via Starlink.

The garden level features a double bedroom with a desk. There is also an independent studio with bunk beds, a kitchen, and a dining table. The terrace and garden are directly accessible from both the bedroom and the studio. This floor also includes a shower room with double sinks and a toilet, as well as a laundry room.

You'll find several parking spots outside the property, including a carport with a charging point for electric vehicle and safe storage for bicycles.

About the area...

Saint-Gervais, along with nearby Les Contamines, Combloux and Megève, are part of the Évasion Mont-Blanc ski area located a 5-minute drive away. For even more choice, it's a 30-minute drive to the Espace Diamant, which comprises Praz-sur-Arly, Bellecombe, Crest-Voland, Flumet, and Les Saisies.

Experienced skiers looking for some stunning night skiing should head for the Vallée Blanche — do hire a guide for this 23km run which, with a 2,000m drop, will take you from the Aiguille du Midi to the Mer de Glace, an almost surreal experience under a full moon.

For a change from skiing, why not try dog-sledding or snow-shoe walking, which are both available within a short drive of Chalet Étoile Nordique. For a little more adventure, why not try ice climbing, via ferrata or paragliding.

When the snow melts, the mountains become the domain of walkers and cyclists. There's so much to see in this varied landscape — explore the Argentière glacier or perhaps the Baroque footpath, a 20km trail from Combloux to Les Contamines-Montjoie, which takes you past some of the area's finest baroque buildings. Look out for marmots along the way!

On a hot day, head for the swimming lake in Combloux or the Lac de Passy where you can relax in the pure waters fed by mountain streams surrounded by wild flowers and stunning views of Mont Blanc. Take a picnic and relax while the kids enjoy the great play area. There's also a treetop adventure course, pedalos and mini-golf as well as windsurfing, paddle boarding and fishing — it's a great family day out.

An excursion to Mont Blanc is not to be missed — the scenic Mont Blanc Tramway, a rack and pinion railway will take you to the foot of the Bionnassay Glacier at a height of 2,372m.

And at the end of an exhilarating day, return for a swim in the pool at Chalet Étoile Nordique, and plan your next wonderful adventure in the mountains.
