Welcome to Morzine Ski Resort

It’s not difficult to see why Morzine is a firm favourite. Just over an hour from Geneva, it is one of the most accessible of the big, interconnected resorts, giving access to the vast playground that is the Portes du Soleil area. That’s 12 resorts with 580km of pistes and 30 snowparks, all on one pass. The village itself is nestled at 1,000m and the picture of old world Savoyarde charm. If it’s the chalet experience you’re after, this is the place. Morzine also boasts a lively après scene with some great bars and clubs to party the night away.

Best time to ski in Morzine

The Portes du Soleil consistently records some of the highest snowfalls and deepest snow depths in Europe – don’t let Morzine’s seemingly low altitude of 1,000m put you off. Because the ground underneath is mostly grass, it also requires less snow than rocky terrain to be skiable. All this means that Morzine is a good bet the whole season, but of course, January and February are the most reliable snow months. But the latest snow cannons will ensure the slopes back into the village have snow through to April.

Things to do in Morzine

There’s so much more to a ski trip than just skiing or boarding – and in a place like Morzine, there’s enough going on to keep even non-skiers happy. Experience the snow on foot with magical winter wonderland walks or head off the beaten track with a ski-tour – where you earn your turns by climbing the hill with ‘skins’ attached to the bottom of your skis. Off the snow there’s the heated pools of Parc des Dereches (guys – budgie smugglers only), fitness and yoga classes and spas. While Morzine is popular with families, there’s also some great nightlife with everything from jazz to drum n bass and live music on offer.
