WHO WE ARE

OUR HISTORY

In 1954, my parents decided to look for a place near Chamonix.
My father was fond of mountaineering.
They had discovered this region while he was studying at the summer physics school my aunt created in Les Houches.
They bought a very rustic and old farm (built in 1787) in les Plans, a small hamlet near Saint-Nicolas de Véroce.
Since then, it has been a special place for all the family.
The younger generation is perpetuating the tradition, everyone coming as much as possible,
and practicing the sports or activities of their choice.

You can learn more about the history of Les Plans reading the Blog.

THE REGION

Haute-Savoie is a French department bordering Italy.
Saint-Gervais-les-Bains is located near Chamonix and Megève. The Mont-Blanc summit is administratively located in Saint-Gervais. The city has been popular with tourists since the early 1900s but has a local population year round.

There are plenty of exciting activities to do for every season. In winter, there are many activities around snow. In summer, the activities are numerous, from mountaineering to gentle hikes or more touristic activities. Spring and fall are quieter seasons during which you can enjoy the beauty and peace of the region while practicing various activities.
