Imagine a warm summer afternoon at Lac des Ecoles, enjoying a barbecue on the shore as you watch the action on the lake, from paddleboarding to the inflatable Wibit obstacle course. Spend mornings hiking through alpine meadows to lookout points before having lunch in a mountain restaurant. Wander in and out of upmarket shops and traditional patisseries, later heading to Alta Lumina to watch the incredible nighttime light show in the woods.

Les Gets is located in the French Alps in the Haute-Savoie department of France, close to the border of Switzerland. Les Gets is about an hour and 10 minutes away by car from Geneva Airport in Switzerland. Lake Geneva is just 40 minutes away.
Les Gets is part of the Portes du Soleil area, linking 12 mountain resorts across France and Switzerland.
The nearest airport to Les Gets is Geneva Airport over the border in Switzerland. The transfer time from there is approximately one hour and 10 minutes, depending on weather conditions. Once you book with Hunter Chalets, our concierge team can arrange private or group transfers to your chalet.
An alternative airport is Lyon-Saint Exupéry Airport in France. Transfer times take around two hours and 30 minutes. We recommend arranging a private transfer, as public transport or coaches are likely to take twice as long!
