What Skiers Say About Morillon

Morillon is reviewed primarily by intermediate and advanced skiers who value its position within the Grand Massif linked area, providing access to a large ski domain across five villages. The resort itself is described as quiet, family-friendly, and good value, with efficient lifts and well-groomed runs dominated by blues and reds. However, multiple reviewers note snow reliability issues at village level due to lower altitude, particularly in recent years and later in the season, though higher slopes remain better covered. The village has limited nightlife and dining options, especially at the mid-station Les Esserts. Reviewers consistently praise the free ski bus, lack of lift queues, and suitability for families and beginners.

Used to go to Morillon every year and absolutely loved it! Amazing runs and apres ski. Slightly less snow sure than other resorts now though. Great resort for taking children, lots of really fun green runs through the trees and good ski schools.

We have stayed at Les Esserts, the mid station above Morrilon. We have found it to be family friendly with a relaxed atmosphere. Most of the accommodation is self catering, but there are enough places to eat out if needed. There are plenty of ski hire shops, all with friendly and helpful staff.
It is not a resort for wild apres ski.
For beginners the nursery slope is well located and well looked after.
There is good access to the higher slopes with two chair lifts, and an easy green run back.
The main chair leads on to a wide range of slopes taking you to all parts of the Grand Massive. These slopes are well maintained with a large number of snow making machines and well served with a wide range of mountain restaurants.
We have found that there is plenty of scope for morning skiing and being back in Les Esserts to meet up with the rest of the family for lunch.

Very good for families with ski school near accommodations. Lots of family friendly runs and enclosed piste areas that all lead to one point at the bottom. Quite low altitude so can sometimes struggle with snow cover and quality depending on the time of year. Good access to the whole grand massif and over to flaine.

Morillon, part of the grande massif is a small but great resort. Links well to 4 other villages that make up the resort and is a quaint, attractive and very enjoyable area to ski.

Morillon and Les Esserts

Very cheap
And cheerful and a bit neglected overall, but good lifts up to Grand Massif and you can ski over to the higher and thriving Flaine fairly large ski area and despite the snow running out down in Less Esserts, the snow above was great and vast in March. Ski hire quality wasnt the most current in les esserts but would suit beginners and intermediates fine.
Eating out in Les Esserts was a choice of two places and it all felt a bit abandoned and ghost town-ish!!
We didnt care because we were there to ski with the kids, but if you needed the whole buzzing apres scene, youd be sorely disappointed! One Sherpa, very overpriced. Big Carrefour down outside Morillon itself.

We love Morillon, with its small village feel, and easy ski school access, it makes skiing with a young family very doable. We stayed in Morillon 1100, and there are a couple of restaurants and a small selection of shops, and a supermarket. Lots of apartments to rent at reasonable prices, and quick access up the main lift to my favourite blue run, Sairon, or access to the rest of the Grand Massif. Only issue here is resort height, and we have found the snow levels poor in recent years in the village. But once youre up, the skiing is great and hopefully just a couple of blips with the weather will see this place have some more snow in the future in the resort.

Quiet area which did not benefit from much snow unfortunately. Access to Grand Massif was the saviour however and just a short drive to neighbouring Samoens. Also a short drive to Les Gets/ Morzine which could be an idea if you like to ski a lot.
