CARRIAGES

Discover Megève's horse-drawn carriages: a timeless ride

In the heart of Megève, the equestrian tradition lives on and is expressed through its famous horse-drawn carriages. Every winter's day, under the big fir tree in the village square, around twenty carriages await visitors for a unique ride. More than just a simple attraction, these carriage rides are a real immersion in the history and agricultural heritage of the resort.

An age-old tradition at the heart of Megève

Megève's love affair with horses goes back a long way. Every summer, the resort plays host to the prestigious Grand Prix show-jumping competition, demonstrating its deep roots in the equestrian world. But it's especially in winter that this passion takes on its full meaning, with carriages that recall an era when horse-drawn carriages were used to transport residents and visitors through the village and up to the snow-capped peaks.

The Megève horse: an emblematic breed

This equestrian history has given rise to a unique breed: the Megève horse. A cross between the Swiss Franche-Montagne and the Comtois horse, it embodies the robustness and endurance that were once essential for pulling carriages and wagons across the Alps. Even today, it symbolises the strong link between Megève and its equestrian past.

An enchanting experience

Sitting in a horse-drawn carriage and letting yourself be carried along to the rhythm of the horses' footsteps is to enjoy Megève in a different way. By day, the ride reveals the picturesque charm of the village streets. At night, when the lights illuminate the facades and the atmosphere becomes magical, it's the perfect moment for an unforgettable romantic moment. For an even more original experience, let yourself be tempted by a fondue savoured along the way, in the intimacy of a horse-drawn carriage.
Ready to step back in time? Let yourself be charmed by the timeless elegance of Megève's horse-drawn carriages and enjoy an enchanted interlude in the heart of the mountains.
