MORZINE

Travel sustainably - leaf icon

Morzine is a large, vibrant resort in the heart of the Portes du Soleil, popular with British visitors and open year-round. This traditional town stretches along both sides of a river gorge, surrounded by classic wooden chalets with slate roofs and stone foundations, preserving its picturesque Savoyard charm.

The village is lively and offers a variety of things to do for both skiers and non skiers- see our handy Activities & Events guide for more information. As well as sporting and cultural activities, there are plenty of Alpine shops selling local treats like Genepi and Tomme de Savoie cheese. Morzine also has a great selection of bars and restaurants so whether you’re looking for après-ski fun, a relaxed atmosphere or somewhere to take the family, there’s something for everyone.

As it’s not a purpose built ski resort, the village is vast and although accommodation is spread out, an excellent bus service connects all parts of Morzine to the main lifts and nearby Les Gets.

With its short 1 hour transfer from Geneva, you can even squeeze in skiing on travel days!

SKI AREA OVERVIEW

At the heart of the Portes du Soleil, Morzine offers a huge network of slopes accessible via 2 main gondolas; Super Morzine and Pleney. The local lift pass covers 120km of piste which includes the Les Gets ski area, perfect for intermediates and beginners with plenty of varied runs and progression slopes.

If you’re staying in the Prodains hamlet of Morzine, your closest ski area is actually Avoriaz via the Prodains Express Gondola. Or you can hop on a ski bus to whisk you down to Morzine village.

If you're up for an adventure and love exploring, consider upgrading your lift pass to cover the entire Portes du Soleil. This gives you access to a massive 650kms of slopes across two countries; head to Avoriaz (via the Super Morzine or Prodains Express gondola) to ski into Switzerland!

MORZINE TOP TIPS
  • Visit the Mont Chery ski area. This hidden gem is well worth half a day of your holiday.

  • Try a tartifflette pizza, a traditional Savoyard dish…but on a pizza!

  • Take the night time snow shoeing tour, it’s not as energetic as it sounds and it’s absolutely wonderful to see the mountains under starlight.

  • Morgins village centre is a great place to stop for lunch whilst circumnavigating the whole of the Portes du Soleil. Keep an eye out for the church in the heart of the village, with its array of melodious bells.

  • Book a late flight home to enjoy a whole day of skiing before flying home that night.
