Ports du Soleil Area Piste Map: http://live.skiplan.com/

Morzine is a traditional town in the heart of the vast Portes du Soleil area which covers several resorts in France and over the border into Switzerland. It is much livelier than its purpose built neighbours. Low altitude can be an issue in which case move up to higher Avoriaz.

With a circuit this size, there is plenty for everybody here. It best suits intermediates who enjoy clocking up the kilometres. Experts will enjoy the often mogulled Swiss Wall itinerary from Avoriaz to Switzerland. Les Gets offers good tree line runs in the event of poor weather higher up.
