Les Gets offers both the authenticity of a charming village resort and breathtaking views from the roof of Europe. Whether you’re skiing, snowboarding or simply out for a hike, Mont Blanc is always there with you. Here’s a guide to the best spots for capturing unforgettable memories of this majestic peak.
Mont Chéry: THE iconic postcard image of Les Gets
Mont Chéry is renowned for offering unforgettable, unobstructed views of the Mont Blanc massif.
A complete and unforgettable experience 🤩
Once at the summit, you will find yourself face to face with the white giant, without any obstacles. As Mont Chéry is a separate area from the rest of the resort, the contrast between the calm of the slopes and the immensity of the landscape is striking!
Photography tips 📸
Aim for the beginning or end of the day to enjoy the low-angled light that sculpts the peaks and offers magical pink and orange hues!
Access 🚠
Mont Chéry cable car from the village centre!
Mont Caly: The perfect spot for nature and food lovers!
Located right next to Mont Chéry, Mont Caly is a little corner of paradise, often accessible by ski touring or snowshoe trails, far from the hustle and bustle of the main slopes.
An intimate experience 😍
Mont Caly offers a more intimate view, often associated with the atmosphere of mountain pastures and traditional chalets. The angle of approach to Mont Blanc is slightly different here, but just as spectacular. It’s the perfect place for a picnic break with a view!

A suspended experience 🫢
Walk across the suspended structure at Ranfoilly for a guaranteed feeling of ‘walking on air’. In addition to Mont Blanc, take in the entire Alpine mountain range. It is the ideal vantage point to appreciate the immensity of the ski area.
Photography tips 📸
Use a wide-angle lens! To capture the platform, the immensity of the Alps and Mont Blanc all at once.
Access 🚠
From the top of the Ranfoilly Express chairlift (in the immediate vicinity)
The Rosta Chairlift: The panoramic ascent
Sometimes, the most beautiful view is not at the summit, but during the ascent! The Rosta chairlift, a key junction in the ski area, offers you an unforgettable climb!
An unforgettable experience throughout the climb 🤩
Sit back, relax and let the show begin. As you climb the Rosta, the panorama gradually unfolds, with Mont Blanc appearing above the ridges. Now’s the time to get your phone out, because the view changes with every metre you climb!
Photography tips 📸
Immortalise the reaction! Ask a friend to turn around and look at Mont Blanc as it comes into view. Take a photograph of them from behind or in profile. This will capture not only the landscape but also the wonder of the discovery!
Access 🚠
Main chairlift connecting Ranfolly to the Turche/Perrières sector.
📸 Final tip: The golden hour (just after sunrise or before sunset) is always the best time to photograph Mont Blanc, as the low light sculpts its ridges and gives it incredible colours.
