Outside Area:Perfectly located just above the Alpine village, Combloux (“Pearl of Mont Blanc’), one hour from Geneva and just a short (3km) drive from ultra chic Megeve, is a well kept secret and is the perfect location for family vacations, both winter & summer. Combloux, a true winter wonderland, with picturesque tree-lined skiing, back-country powder and flattering off-piste runs, interspersed with the coziest mountain restaurants, has breathtaking views and a genuine Savoyard feel with something for skiers of all ages and abilities. The resort packs in a huge amount of variety into its 100 kms of pistes and links seamlessly with over 300 kms of runs in Megeve in the three main ski areas of Rochebrune, Mont d’Arbois and Le Jaillet, resulting in the massive Mont Blanc Evasion ski domain. All of the pistes are immaculately groomed and if you can’t decide where to ski, help is hand from the resort’s 70 ambassadors, waiting at the foot of the slopes each morning. Après ski in Combloux is quiet compared to the night life in nearby Megeve, with its medieval town centre, horse drawn sleighs and seriously smart restaurants. There are several bars and restaurants located at the bottom of the slopes and in the village, but Chalet Rafaelle is located in such a superb spot, it is difficult not to want to ski straight back to your door after a day on the slopes and enjoy the 5 star comfort chez nous.
