Morzine
MorzineA traditional market town in the heart of the Portes du Soleil, Morzine is dominated by attractive chalets spread across a river gorge, bordered by partially wooded slopes allowing skiing in poor weather conditions. Also lift to Avoriaz.
The immediate terrain makes the area best suited for beginners and less-seasoned skiers and snowboarders, which has led to the resort being especially popular with families. However more challenging slopes can be found at Avoriaz via the Prodains lifts which are only five minutes away on the excellent local bus service.
Morzine, at 1000m is the most northern of the French Alpine resorts and benefits from the regional microclimate between Mont Blanc and Lac Leman. There is an underground car park near the main lift.
