Ski News brought to you by SkiWeekends.com, specialists in Bargain Ski Holidays and Ski Holidays in France.

There are plenty of reasons why people would want to enjoy ski holidays in Avoriaz, according to one source which has noted that the resort offers attractions that can not be seen anywhere else.

The advice site Ski News noted that a major lure of Avoriaz is that it is the only car-free resort in France, with every chalet and residence accessible on skis.

It means that parents can spend their holidays with complete peace of mind, in the knowledge that their little ones are safe from traffic around the town, the website explained.

Another attraction is the vast ski area, as Avoriaz is ideally placed directly in the centre of the Portes du Soleil, meaning 650km of high-altitude slopes in France and Switzerland are accessible, with each offering panoramic skiing between Mont Blanc and Lake Geneva.

"The resort is the perfect starting point for those seeking to explore the Portes du Soleil area, with the option of skiing to a different resort everyday of the week for lunch," the site added.

As Avoriaz is located on a south-facing plateau, it is great place to enjoy the apres-ski on an outside terrace after a day on the sunny slopes, the source explained, while it is also one of the liveliest resorts in the Alps, as far as events are concerned.

The source pointed to the Go Wild Outdoor Music Festival from March 24th to 28th and the Jazz Up Festival from March 31st to April 7th as two great reasons to travel on ski weekends there in the weeks ahead.
