Snapshot
Morzine ski holidays offer an unrivalled variety of skiing and snowboarding. The slopes up at Avoriaz ensure snow sure conditions which are suited to all abilities and family ski groups. The area covers 12 ski resorts with a vast range of skiing that will have you discovering new slopes all week long! Morzine is a very pretty ski resort with excellent facilities, a multitude of bars and of boutique shopping and entertainment for the non skiers.
Snow sure
Even though Morzine sits at a moderate altitude, it is the most northerly ski resort in France, which means that it will always get much better snow than most other French resorts at the same altitude. This factor along with an abundance of north facing slopes, means the snow often lasts well into May!
Skiing in Morzine
Morzine is an incredibly attractive resort with lots of tree runs and a diverse range of skiing that will entertain all levels and tastes for weeks! The mountain is very well featured and provides not only many miles of excellent skiing, but wonderful scenery for touring too. Families and beginners are very well catered for and experts have a wealth of skiing available to them as well.
Snowboarding in Morzine
Morzine and Avoriaz was the first ever resort to adopt snowboarding in the early 1990s when it hosted the British Championships. Since then the facilities have been improved upon every year and the 6 or 7 terrain-parks that feature in the local area are testament to that. They range from the very large “Super Park” in the Swiss sector to the easier Junior parks of Les Gets, with jumps of all sizes so that even the novices are not intimidated from “giving it a go”. The Freeride terrain and Off Piste is also excellent in this resort, and Morzine is the season choice of residency for many British and foreign Pro’s.
Beginner Skiing in Morzine
It is the resort’s suitability to beginners and the range of inexpensive child facilities that really stand Morzine and Les Gets out from the crowd. The range of kids’ clubs and ski gardens, as well as circuits of gentle runs for easy cruising, and hardly any drag lifts, (great for beginners), make it a very popular choice for beginner skiers, boarders and families.
The Resort of Morzine
Morzine is a very traditional looking and pleasant village to stay in. Being quite a large mountain resort there is lots to offer and it is heavily accentuated with the right amount of British presence. Socially it is one of livelier resorts in France and offers late night venues for partying or relaxed drinking and dining venues for the more sedate and family minded skiers.
