Snow Shoeing |
||||
| St Gervais is a wonderful site for the rapidly growing sport of snow-shoeing with a large amount of safe trails in and above the tree line. The same applies for cross country skiing. There are long trails for Nordic skiers linking Megeve, Le Bettex and St Nicolas de Veroce. The trails can be reached via the ski lifts: Mont Blanc tramway: walks between Bellevue, Col de Voza and Bionassay. Cable Cars St Gervais/Le Bettex/Mont d'Arbois: walks along the ridge of Mont d'Arbois opposite Mont Blanc. | ||||
