What is Morzine like as a ski resort?
Morzine marries authentic savoyard charm with slopes suitable for all levels of skiers and access to one of Europe’s largest ski areas.
Morzine itself has terrain to satisfy skiers of all abilities, but there are also 600km of pistes to explore across the Portes du Soleil. There are perfect beginner and child-friendly runs at the top of the Pléney lift, as well as dedicated kids areas like the Penguin piste at the top of the Nabor and Belvédère chairlifts.
Intermediates will love the descents from Chamossiere and Le Pas de l'Aigle, and the pistes in neighbouring Les Gets. Experts can’t miss the infamous Swiss Wall up above Avoriaz.
The Port du Soleil, which is one of Europe’s largest, combines 12 different resorts across France and Switzerland - including Avoriaz, Châtel, Les Gets, Montriond, La Chapelle-d'Abondance, and more - and Morzine’s enviable location at the centre of the region makes it the perfect jumping off point.
The area's sophisticated lift system makes it relatively easy to get around, and you can even find a lift pass to suit your ability, including a whole area pass and one that’s specific to the beginners slopes.Off the slopes, there’s plenty to entertain, including games and shows for kids and a raucous après scene for the party crowd.

What's the accommodation like in Morzine?
From lovely old chalets to family run hotels, there are accommodation options to suit all needs and budgets in Morzine.
Many of the hotels in the town are as pretty as the chalets. There are bed and breakfast and half-board hotels, and loads of locations to choose from, whether you want easy access to the slopes or to be a short walk from the town centre.
Likewise, there’s a great choice of chalets, including some pretty affordable catered options. But if you do want to stay somewhere fabulous, take a look at the very luxurious Chalet Colbri Uno, which is just 50m from the Pleney lift.
Or check out these fantastic self-catered apartments, all just a short walk from the lifts and the town.
What's the apres scene like in Morzine?
From late night sessions and live music to wine bars and super strength lager, Morzine has somewhere to whet your après appetite.
Tremplin, at the foot of the slopes, is one of the best places to head after a day of skiing if you’re hankering for a classic après party, with live bands and DJs on the terrace.
Coyote Bar is a great spot for playing pool until the early hours, and hosts a number of different theme nights throughout the week.
Cavern, something of an institution, is also good for a late one, offering live music until 2am everyday of the week, as well as tables with their own private beer pumps, and matches for sports fixtures.
Finally, one of the liveliest parties in town can be found at Cafe Chaud, with late night DnB, techno, house, and more until 2am.
What activities are there to do in Morzine?
There’s plenty to do and see in Morzine off the slopes as well, whether you’re after more thrills or you want to relax.
You don’t have to ski to enjoy the snow and the mountain air. There’s snowshoeing, snowmobiling, sledging, nordic walking, mountain biking in the snow, and even a laser biathlon.
Or if you want to stay indoors, try the town’s escape room, unwind with some yoga at the fitness centre, head for a dip at the swimming complex, or work on your swing at indoor golf. There’s also a cinema, Le Rex, that plays new releases in English.
If you’re lucky, your trip might coincide with a Morzine Penguins fixture, the local ice hockey team and one of the oldest clubs in France.
What is skiing in Morzine like?
Morzine is a top notch ski destination in its own right, but it certainly doesn’t hurt that it’s bang in the middle of one of the largest ski areas in Europe.
Learners can look forward to lovely, wide pistes and tree-lined runs in the resort itself, but more advanced beginners and intermediates will have no issues exploring beyond its borders.
Indeed, it’s possible to cover the whole Portes du Soleil on blues and reds. Advanced skiers have world-class black runs to conquer and there are several snow parks for freestyle enthusiasts.
Is Morzine a good place to ski?
Morzine is a skier's dream. Whether you’re just starting out, keen to improve, or looking to push your skiing to its limits, you can find terrain to match.
There are more than 300 runs in Port du Soleil region, including 39 greens, 130 blues, 105 reds, and 33 blacks.
The aforementioned Swiss Wall is a must do for experts. It has a 37° average slope and up to a 76% gradient. But there’s also the World Cup downhill for speed demons.
Boarders will find the Portes du Soleil a paradise, with loads of free riding potential, as well as parks, pipes, powdered bowls and cliff jumps - including the popular Stash up at Avoriaz.
Is Morzine snow sure?
Morzine itself is not particularly high (1,000m). However, it has lifts going up to a reliable height of 2,350m and a good snow record in recent years.
The 21/22 and 22/23 seasons have seen upwards of 150cm of snow depth on the upper slopes. Of course, if snow is thin on the ground, you could hop up to snow sure Avoriaz simply by taking the 15 minute bus to Prodain and then the 4 minute Prodains Express cable.
Is Morzine suitable for beginners?
Morzine is great for beginners.
The green down from Belvedere is a perfect starting point, and there are a couple of other greens nearby, including Les Indiens, and Piste 64. When you’re ready to progress, you’ll be spoilt for choice.
Morzine is famed for its lovely long blues that wind through the trees, including Grizzli, Piste B, and Corbeau, all great for developing skiers. When you’re more confident, head up to Ranfoilly and do the descent that starts on Tetras and leads into Choucas.
Family skiing in Morzine
Morzine has a number of dedicated kids slopes that are served by magic carpets, including the nursery pistes in Pleney and Nyon.
Young skiers will also love learning on Chemin des Zouzous, which winds through the trees and features life-size animal statues, The Penguin Park, and the Milka Run and Grand Cry over in Les Gets.
If you're looking to spend a family Christmas in Morzine, there's a fantastic events calendar, Christmas market, and the slopes usually open around the penultimate weekend of December.
Another great thing about Morzine from a family perspective is the short transfer time from Geneva - just over an hour - making it a breeze to get to with impatient little ones.
Morzine Ski Holiday FAQs
More Morzine questions answered below!
Morzine vs Avoriaz - which is better?
Both Morzine and Avoriaz are wonderful resorts. Morzine’s lower altitude and tree-lined runs are better for beginners, and you’ll have more variety in terms of accommodation and nightlife.
However, Avoriaz is more snow sure for early and late season, and its unique architecture and dramatic location really give it character.

A pint of beer in Morzine will cost you between €6-8.
Is Morzine expensive for skiing?
Morzine is not particularly expensive compared to some of the more luxurious resorts. There are high-end options, of course, but also more budget-friendly ones.
You can also save money by choosing a local pass rather than one for the whole Portes du Soleil.
Do you need a car in Morzine?
Morzine is accessible by car and not pedestrianised. However, you don’t need a car as there’s decent public transport to get you around.
What is the nearest city to Morzine?
Geneva, approximately 60km away, is the nearest city to Morzine, although the large town of Thonon, with its hospital and train station is 45 minutes away by car.
Can you get altitude sickness in Morzine?
As altitude sickness usually occurs above 2,000m and Morzine sits at 1,000m, you are unlikely to get altitude sickness.

ANDREW WILLIAM HARRIS
Fantastic place to stay in Morzine -
12/02/2020
We booked this hotel for our honeymoon, and we are so pleased with our choice. Hotel is a lovely mix of feeling very traditional with lots of wood features, but also very comfortable with modern touches. Our room was large and comfortable, plenty of space for all of our belongings. Shower was powerful with lots of hot water. Room cleaned daily. Food was fantastic, we were half board. Buffet breakfast in the morning, with choices of cereals, cold meats/cheese, pastries, yogurts and also scrambled egg and bacon every day. Dinner was a themed buffet each evening (Mexican, Italian, Asian etc) then a choice of a meat, fish or vegetarian main course, followed by cheese course and then dessert which was outstanding every night. Lounge was really comfortable to relax in after dinner and have drinks, also other people around too so the place had a bit of a buzz which we enjoyed. We were given a code for our ski locker when checking in, which comfortably fit 2x skis, 2x poles, 2 x ski boots and 2x helmets. Ski boots were always dried out the next day. Spa was a fantastic way to end each day, with a large jacuzzi pool with jets, a Turkish hamman and a sauna. Hotel also provide robes and slippers so no need to worry about getting changed to go from your room to the spa, and has lift access in case you don't want to walk through the hotel! Great location for Pleney ski lift, literally a two minute walk if even that. Also have access to the free bus/train right outside the hotel which takes you to the Super Morzine lift to go to Avoriaz. Overall, we could not fault the hotel in the slightest, we absolutely loved it and would love to return again in the future!
