Skiing in Champery
Though there is a good ski school, Champery is not ideal for the beginner with only a single gentle nursery slope in the centre of the village and most of the tuition taking place at the end of an expensive cable car ride to the higher Planachaux runs. It is the capable/intermediate skier for whom Champery is perhaps the most suitable, with the whole of the Franco-Swiss Portes du Soleil piste circuit to explore. The routes to Avoriaz can include the famous ‘Swiss Wall’ with its terrifying moguls and there is great skiing towards Châtel and Champoussin. Ski school is well organised.
