I am excited to try some of the harder slopes next time, having built up my confidence this year and improving my ability to ski moguls and steeper slopes.
Les Gets is so handy from Geneva and on a shared transfer it tends to be the first drop off ahead of Morzine and Avoriaz so is particularly good if you are trying to get a couple of hours in when you arrive or a full day before you leave.
We love the variety of the slopes but a few of the lifts could do with upgrades/replacement particularly La Rosta (which is a shame as the runs down from there are a lot of fun). Mont Chery has some great skiing and while it is not connected to the wider area it is very much worth a visit if the snow is good as it can be quite a bit quieter there with the opportunity to put some real laps in.
Unless the weather is particularly grotty we tend to take the chairlift out of towns (Chavannes Express) as it is quicker and gets you further up the mountain opening up more options for the first few runs of the day.
A couple of the group have has ESF private lessons and would highly recommend. ESF seems a good deal cheaper than other resort based options.
We are a bit old for apres ski done properly and tend to have more late lunches followed by a leisurely ski home. The quality of the restaurants both on the hill and in town is excellent with our particular favourite being La Paika - a must for meat aficionados.
Its a very family friendly resort - no riotous nightlife - just the one nightclub, The Igloo but there are plenty of restaurants . On piste our favourite is the Paika which you can only get to on skis. It does fabulous bbqd meat and fish.
I can recommend the Ski360 ski school- theyve been very patient with me and certainly brought my skiing level up.
For a day off skiing, its worth the walk to Mont Caly and have lunch at Les Chevrelles- an authentic and rustic Alpine chalet with excellent food. Brilliant views too.
If you are planning on skiing more than 2 weeks in the village then buy a season pass before the end of September. The price is vastly reduced and gives taster days at other resorts for free and a run on the new Luge.
For those self catering, there is a Carrefour in the village which caters for most of your needs.
On a final note its a friendly village and nearly everyone speaks English.
A gorgeous small, family-friendly resort attached to the expansive Port de Soleil with its incredible, extensive ski area.
Cannot wait to now teach my own children here!
The bars on the slopes and party belies drew us back.
There are slopes for all types
About quality was good even on the man made snow. Some really fast decents for the thrill seeker, plenty of space to get away from the crowd.
1) Connects to Morzine and the Portes du Soleil, ski-in.
2) has *amazing* fun tree runs, just next to the pistes
3) the domain is wide enough that lift wait times are relatively short
4) great for beginners, some good areas for more advanced skiers
5) did I mention direct access to Morzine and the whole Portes du Soleil?
It's overall very family friendly, and the shredders in the crew can easily pop to Morzine and back for some seriously challenging runs.
