The village of Les Gets is arranged around two main streets that are connected by a bridge. The Front de Neige faces the home run of the Chavannes gondola and includes the lift pass office as well as restaurants, bars and shops. The second street runs parallel and offers a number of boutiques and more restaurants. You’ll find the village ice rink and Tourist office along this road as well.
The best time to visit Les Gets is from mid-December to early April. This is when the snow conditions are at their best and you’ll have the slopes to yourself without the crowds of the summer season. Les Gets can get busy at Christmas and New Year but quietens down a lot in January. The British and French half term school holidays see the village at its busiest from February to March.
