Morzine in winter
The most authentic village of Haute Savoie, Morzine is nestled in the valleys of the Portes du Soleil ( Northern French Alps) and is a picturesque and traditional ski resort with panoramic views of the famous Mont Blanc Massif and the Dents Blanches.
Morzine is a great base for skiing the 650km linked area of the Portes du Soleil and Morzine, Nyon and Les Gets itself has the most extensive local pistes of the resorts in the area with relatively few queues. It is perfect for ski weekends and short winter holidays as it has the shortest transfer time of just over an hour from Geneva airport to the resort. The ski resort is located at the northernmost end of the French Alps, right between Lake Geneva and Mont Blanc and these factors create a microclimate with weather fronts bringing precipitation to the area. The Morzine-Les Gets side is also mostly pastureland, so only 20cm of snow is needed for good skiing conditions. The purpose-built Avoriaz, linked to the rest of the Portes du Soleil and the Swiss ski resorts of Champery and Morgins, is easily accessible by gondola from the centre of Morzine and the new super-fast 3S lift from the Prodains valley. . The resort is well served by a range of local shopping, bars and restaurants with menus to suit all tastes and budgets from local Savoyard menus to gastronomic delights. |
