Activities


How far is the chalet from the slopes ?

In winter, we advise you to take the free ski shuttle in the other direction to reach the Ardent gondola in 8 minutes to access directly the heart of Les Portes du Soleil and Avoriaz area. 

What ski pass/area do you recommend ?

It will depend on the level and desires of each. 

The area of Morzine-Les Gets is without doubt the most family-friendly and authentic, with a major part in the fir forest and magnificient views of the Mont Blanc. It can be less intersting for very good skiers. 

The Morzine-Avoriaz area is the most known and recognized resort, sporty and varied, with many freestyle & freeride areas even fot little ones with the Lil' Stash. Restaurants, bars, the Folie Douce, everything is there ! This is the one we will recommend most of the time. 

Finally Les Portes du soleil for a "ski safari". This consist of going around Les Portes du Soleil, passing through Switzerland with breathtaking views of Les Dents du Midi, Les Dents Blanches, Mont Blanc and Lake Geneva. Go from a village to another and never ride the same track !

Can we ski back to the chalet ?

We have never succedeed yet. 

Which activities for people who don't ski ?

There's plenty for everyone ! Non-skieurs will delight themselves in the jacuzzi to start but a multitude of activities is offered by Les Portes du Soleil resorts. You can consult our section "Activities" or clik on the link for more information.
