Cohennoz is the quiet, rural side of the Crest-Voland Cohennoz resort — a small Savoyard commune in the Val d'Arly whose Le Cernix hamlet gives lift access into the 192km Espace Diamant. For buyers who want the calmest, most authentic corner of this sunny valley, it is hard to beat.

For UK buyers, Cohennoz offers genuine rural character close to a full ski domain, with everything from affordable resale to a boutique programme of new detached chalets — all a short drive from glamorous Megève.

A Short History

Cohennoz is one of the smallest and most rural communes in the Val d'Arly, a scattering of hamlets above the Arly river that historically lived by farming and cheese. Its ski-side hamlet of Le Cernix developed as the lift base shared with neighbouring Crest-Voland, with which it forms the single resort of Crest-Voland Cohennoz. It has kept a genuinely quiet, traditional character — the antithesis of a purpose-built station.

The Resort

The village of Cohennoz sits at around 925 metres, with the higher hamlet of Le Cernix as its ski-side base. Together with Crest-Voland it forms one resort, lift-linked into the Espace Diamant — the 192km domain shared with Notre-Dame-de-Bellecombe, Flumet, Praz-sur-Arly and Les Saisies. Glamorous Megève is a short drive down the valley.

Where to Buy — The Areas of Cohennoz

The choice in Cohennoz is essentially between the ski-side hamlet and the quieter lower village.

Le Cernix

The ski-side hamlet, with the lift access and the most convenient skiing — where the resort's chalet stock and new programmes are concentrated.

The lower village and hamlets

Quieter, more rural and more affordable, suited to buyers who want peace and authenticity and are content to drive the short distance to Le Cernix for the lifts.

Buyers comparing the resort should also look at Crest-Voland and the wider Espace Diamant market.

The Skiing

Cohennoz shares the Crest-Voland Cohennoz sector of the Espace Diamant — part of a 192km domain across six village resorts on one pass, rising to 2,069 metres. The local skiing is sunny and gentle, ideal for families and improvers, with the snow-sure ski-in/ski-out terrain of Les Saisies a few lifts away across the domain.

The Property Market

Cohennoz spans two very different ends of the market. At the premium end, current new-build market data (Q2 2026) covers a boutique programme of detached mountain chalets from around €1.24 million to €1.69 million, at an average of roughly €9,800 per square metre — high-specification family houses rather than apartments. At the other end, resale offers far more accessible entry, broadly around €5,000 per square metre on current benchmarks. The full new-build breakdown is in the table below. UK buyers can model monthly costs in sterling with our French mortgage calculator.

Rental demand follows the Val d'Arly's family, dual-season pattern — gentle skiing and the Espace Diamant in winter, hiking and pasture country in summer — at the quiet, value end of the valley.

Lifestyle & Activities Beyond Skiing

Cohennoz is about rural calm, with the Val d'Arly's activities all around.

Summer and village life

  • Hiking and pasture walks — quiet trails with Aravis and Mont Blanc views.
  • Cheese and farm culture — Beaufort, Reblochon and Tomme de Savoie country.
  • Mountain biking — trails across the Crest-Voland Cohennoz sector and beyond.

Family appeal

Quiet, safe and rural, with gentle shared skiing and easy domain access, Cohennoz suits families who want an authentic, low-key base over resort bustle.

Accessibility

Geneva Airport is roughly 1 hour 15 to 1 hour 30 by road via the Val d'Arly, with Albertville around 22 kilometres away. Direct UK flights to Geneva make access straightforward.

Why Buy in Cohennoz

Cohennoz suits the buyer who wants the quietest, most rural Val d'Arly base while still sharing a full linked ski domain — whether that means affordable resale in the hamlets or a high-specification new chalet at Le Cernix. The village is low and the skiing is reached via Le Cernix rather than the door — but for peace, authenticity and value beside Megève, it is a distinctive choice.

Questions About Cohennoz.

What are property prices in Cohennoz?

The market spans two ends. New-build is currently a boutique programme of detached mountain chalets from around €1.24 million to €1.69 million (averaging roughly €9,800 per square metre) — high-specification houses rather than apartments. Resale offers far more accessible entry, broadly around €5,000 per square metre.

What skiing does Cohennoz give access to?

Cohennoz shares the Crest-Voland Cohennoz sector of the Espace Diamant — a 192km domain across six village resorts on one pass, rising to 2,069m. The local skiing is sunny and gentle, with snow-sure Les Saisies a few lifts away.

How is Cohennoz different from Crest-Voland?

They form one resort, but Cohennoz is the quieter, lower and more rural side, with its ski access via the Le Cernix hamlet. Crest-Voland has the more developed village centre. Buyers choose Cohennoz for peace and authenticity while sharing the same skiing.

How far is Cohennoz from Geneva Airport?

Roughly 1 hour 15 to 1 hour 30 by road via the Val d'Arly, with Albertville around 22 kilometres away. Direct UK flights to Geneva make access straightforward.

Is Cohennoz good for rental income?

It follows the Val d'Arly's family, dual-season pattern — gentle skiing and the Espace Diamant in winter, hiking and pasture country in summer — at the quiet, value end of the valley. It suits steady family rental rather than premium returns.

Should I buy a new-build or resale property in Cohennoz?

It depends on budget and brief: new-build here means high-specification detached chalets at the premium end, while resale offers much more affordable entry in the village and hamlets. The two are very different propositions — we help buyers identify which fits.
