Great resort, well maintained runs and a decent mix of blue to black runs. Great having access to the Porte Du Soleil ski area. Allowing you access to Avoriaz, Les Gets etc.
However, worth noting that blues/greens are not typical beginner runs and so I would not so not say that it’s beginner friendly in comparison to bigger resorts. The village itself is lovely with lots of great restaurants and bars.

Great for families wanting a quieter resort. Ability to ski into Switzerland specifically Torgon was so easy, ski down for lunch and back up with ease. Not really any apres that we came across but was so busy exploring all the slopes it didn’t matter

Tucked away but part of the massive Portes Du Soleil, La Chapelle offers some excellent wide motorway skiing, a couple of perfect reds to ski in fresh powder or when bumpy. This is a small but perfect resort with quiet lifts. Ive skied fresh tracks run after run from the chair whilst my kids race trained on the stade accessed from the same chair. However La Chapelle is even more well renowned for the incredible restaurants- there are 4 or 5 boasting great cuisine from talented chefs.
