LES GETS
Les Gets is part of the world-class Portes du Soleil ski area. The ever-popular resort offers all the joys of skiing, breath-taking panoramic views and easy, instant ski-in access to the lifts. It’s a winter playground with multiple snow activities but it’s also ideal for those who want a wintery break in an authentic Savoyard village and to experience exceptional sunshine in all seasons alongside stunning views of Mont-Blanc.
Not to miss this winter: Go for a hike in winter wonderland in the company of Nordic dogs. When your legs are worn out, hop on to the sled and let a dog team and guide carry you through the snow.
MERIBEL
Nestled in the beautiful Alpine valley of Les Allues, Méribel is a renowned ski resort where you can experience that quintessential ski holiday in one of the biggest domains in the world – the 3 Valleys. Méribel is linked to Courchevel and Val Thorens, giving you access to 600km of pistes. Méribel Centre is the largest of several villages in the resort and is home to the main shopping area and a great selection of restaurants.
Not to miss this winter: Méribel has a snow terrace. Instagram fans will love this area at the highest summit of Méribel, the iconic Mont Vallon, right by the huge Méribel sign. We recommend a picnic on the snow terrace while you soak up the incredible views.
MORZINE
Morzine is a thriving Alpine village set deep in the Chablais mountain range, by the France-Switzerland border. This charming ski resort is also popular for biking, hiking and alpine climbing in summer. Located in the middle of Portes du Soleil, one of the biggest ski areas in the world, Morzine is also linked directly to the ski resorts of Avoriaz and Les Gets.
Not to miss this winter: At the Resto des Bulles, enjoy Savoyard favourites like fondue and raclette in a bubble while taking in the breath-taking panoramic views in the mountains.
