What Kind of Weather to Expect

At the far end of this beautiful Savoyard valley, Morzine is next door to Les Gets and this alpine resort receives hot sunshine for much of the summer. The mountains can occasionally bring freak rain showers in June but they tend to be short lived before making way for sun again, so be prepared with a light mac and lots of sun cream. Morzine and Gets offer open air swimming pools and fresh water lakes with sunbathing beaches for swimmers and families. An extensive summer lift system with a great choice of terrain for walkers and bikers make Morzine the premier summer alpine resort with over 70 activities!

Tignes is quite a southern resort and has one of the best sun shine records. The resort is situated around a large lake, its centre-point, which is used for watersports and relaxation. Warm temps and lake activities with sun bathing prevail most days of the summer! Tignes gets a lot of sunshine due to its southern alpine location. It also offers the largest variety of sporting activities in the entire Alps, and doorstep skiing on the glacier in the summer months. The height of the glacier also means sun cream is a must!
