Morzine

If you’re learning to ski in either Morzine or Les Gets, you’ve come to the right place. The terrain in this area is perfectly suited to rapid progression, with gentle gradients and wide pistes. The beginners slopes and meeting points are extremely close to the town centre. The ski school we recommend is as highly regarded as the terrain, with an extremely professional outlook, and good English speaking instructors.

Avoriaz (connected to Morzine) was first to host the British Championships way back in the early 90's when tartan trousers, boiler suits and permed hair-styles were cool. Be that as it may, the resort's early adoption of the then unheard-of craze of "snowboarding" has now given the sport real momentum for today's visitors - and the facilities that you will find in the are simply staggering.Families and beginners will feel particularly well served with extremely well maintained pistes, and a well linked network of lifts.

The experts have such a wealth of skiing available to them that it is hard to imagine anyone becoming tired of the Portes du Soleil! Straddling the Franco-Swiss border, with the lift system are especially well planned, allowing quite long distances to be skied.

For all Abilities

Riders of all ability will enjoy the "Star Wars" run that wends its merry way down through the trees to the Ardent bubble, offering plenty of small hits, banks, drops and tree routes for the more gung-ho. The Swiss side also offers excellent riding and skiing and is often the last to get tracked on a powder day. The Mossettes chair accesses the hugely impressive Super Park at les Crossets, however a full area pass will be required. The park is not easy for beginners to access but intermediates and up (4 weeks plus) will love the thrilling ride down and the powder opportunities under the chair lift-line.
