Why go to the mountains in summer?

The summer of 2025 promises to be exceptional in the French Alps, especially in Les Gets. Renowned for its ski slopes in winter, this destination of choice becomes a summer refuge for nature and adventure enthusiasts. With a wide range of activities and comfortable accommodation, from chalets to apartments, you are guaranteed an unforgettable summer holiday.

The mountains in summer: an ideal climate

The mountains in summer have a more favourable climate. At high altitudes, the air remains cool, contrasting with the heat in the plains. You can enjoy outdoor activities without being hot. The forest paths, shaded by fir trees, also provide a pleasant coolness.

Discover the Alps and its landscapes

The mountain offers tranquility during the summer. Choosing this destination means detaching yourself from the daily hustle and bustle.
The resort of Les Gets offers a change of scenery thanks to its panoramas. By taking the Mont Chéry gondola, you can admire the Mont-Blanc range from the Belvedere. You can also go to the Nauchets belvedere where you can take advantage of the tables to picnic and contemplate the panoramic view.
