The slopes and off-piste routes of Megève and Saint-Gervais have the advantage of benefiting from varied exposures to the sun and being forested routes for the most part. Thus, we can always find safe off-piste routes in excellent snow, whatever the atmospheric conditions and avalanches risks may be. Besides, when they are significant risks of avalanches in Chamonix valley, most of the off-piste groups and Mountain guides from Chamonix come skiing on Megève and Saint-Gervais off-piste routes.
