Other stuff happening...

It's bloody lovely in St Gervais and there's loads of stuff going on. We're going to organise a few little things throughout the week, and it'd be great if you fancy joining us, but there'll also be plenty of time and space for doing your own thing - and certainly don't feel any obligation to come to anything (with one obvious exception)

If you're out here for the whole week (or longer) it may be worth getting a Leisure Pass from the Tourist Information Office. This is €45 for adults and €35 for kids and gives you unlimited access to the swimming pools, ski lifts, ice skating, crazy golf and minibus around the town.

There's also a world famous thermal spa, parapenting, canyoning, mountain biking, white water rafting, tennis, horse-riding, climbing, golf, fishing, eating and drinking to be done. Check the St Gervais site for info.

Here's the stuff we're doing.....

Wednesday 14th July

Bastille Day

– St Gervais Village Centre

See how the French people drink heavily and burn stuff.... It’s a really amazing night if you can make it and a brilliant way to start a holiday!

Thursday 15th July

Chalets du Miage

-Approx 2 hours walk

For those who feeling fit enough – we’re going to be walking for about 2 hours to a secluded valley that is one of the most beautiful places we’ve ever visited – complete with it’s own glacier and chocolate box chalets. For €35 it’s possible to get a 3 course meal and stay the night

St Gervais

There’s a tonne of stuff going on in town – outdoor swimming pool, ice skating, loads of bars, cable cars up the mountain – you’ll be fine.

Friday 16th July

St Gervais

-Drinks in town

It’s probably wishful thinking, but it’d be great to see you on the Friday evening for a couple!

Saturday 17th

At the ranch

See me blub!

Sunday 18th

St Gervais Swimming Pool and Crazy Golf – Yay!

Breakfast at St Gervais swimming pool at lunch time or maybe in the evening. Make sure you come and say goodbye if you’re leaving on the Sunday!

Monday 19th

Lac De Passy

-Approx 10 mins by car

If you’ve made it this far – it’s time for a restorative. The lake has a beach and is amazing for swimming. We’ll be having a bbq at lunchtime. Bring some meat.

Tuesday 20th

St Gervais

-Lunch up the mountain

We’ll be booking into a lovely restaurant – accessed by the ski lift, before wobbling back into St Gervais. Usually about €30 for 3 course including wine.

Wednesday

St Gervais

More blubbing as we head off on honeymoon!
