Trips to property in France‘s 300-year-old alpine resort, Megeve, could be an ideal way to spend the summer months, despite the region’s reputation as a winter sports destination.
Stefan Laude, press agent for Megeve Tourisme, explains that the town was originally created not for skiing and other winter pursuits, but because of its advantages during the summer.
"It was the first touristic destination in the summer because of the sights," he says. "It is inside a valley so you can walk on both sides and you will see one of the faces of the Mont Blanc."
The village was also founded in its particular location due to the local water, with a lake and a swimming pool among its aquatic attractions.
Property in France‘s alpine region also allows a variety of sports to be enjoyed, with Megeve offering hiking and mountain biking during the summer months, along with a "summer sledge" that could help fans of colder weather through until the snow returns.
