Skiing & Snowboarding in Morzine
Although Morzine is known for sitting at the relatively low altitude of 1,000m it has a good snowfall record for the months of December through to April. The resort’s location at the heart of the 600km Portes du Soleil ski area also makes it a great base for exploring a variety of skiable terrain in both France and Switzerland.
The area immediately surrounding Morzine is predominantly filled with tree-lined blue and red runs which are perfect for intermediates and beginners. Those wanting more challenging pistes will find themselves taking the Super Morzine gondola up to Avoriaz and further afield in the Portes du Soleil where they can find almost limitless areas of off-piste skiing, and one of the most challenging black runs in the Alps – Le Pas de Chavanette.
Morzine and the surrounding area can provide whatever type of skiing experience you are after. A mixture of terrain set in an unspoilt environment and winding through snowbound forests is sure to delight every type of skier and snowboarder.
