Your ski holidays in Morzine
Mountvacation.com has great ski holiday deals at Morzine in France . Browse our latest Morzine ski holidays and find out more about Morzine below. Morzine ski resort has been around for quite some time. It’s mostly popular because it’s easy to get to, but some skiers avoid is because of the effort it takes to get over to Avoriaz. Morzine ski holidays are best for families who want to keep an eye on the kids. The nightlife in Morzine is the traditional French après ski fair, including restaurants, bars, and shops.
The skiing in Morzine, though under-rated, is a great escape from the crowds of the other Portes du Soleil ski areas. Here, there is a possible max altitude of 2460 meters, with the lowest lying about 1500 meters lower at 1000 m. One ski run goes for 8 km (1200 meter drop), but with over 260 ski runs to choose from, it’s not hard to find one to fit certain abilities. Morzine is the gateway to Switzerland, so Geneva has the closest international airport, roughly 75 km away.
The snowboarding in Morzine is unique to say the least. It has an adopted style from the California resort of North Star. Here, it’s called The Stash as it uses 100% natural snow. Half pipe, fun park, cross, jumps, boxens and wide areas let snowboarders go nuts for hours on end.
MORZINE ACCOMMODATIONS:
Morzine has little two star hotels encompassing less than 20 rooms to grandeur hotels and apartments that are four-star, ideal and great for commanding views. Many of the hotels and other lodges use shuttles to transport skiers to the slopes, running efficiently every fifteen minutes.

HOW TO GET THERE
New Morzine: Chaux Fleurie's six appeal
A pat on the back for Morzine-Avoriaz and Chatel ski bosses after completion of the Chaux Fleurie overhaul in Les Lindarets. Some 3000 skiers an hour can now take the lift following its four to six-man upgrade.
New Morzine - Les Gets sector: Raverettes doubles up
A new four-man chair has taken the place of two button lifts on the Nyon plateau. The facility, which can take 1800 skiers per hour, brings all the blues of the Nyon mountain within easy reach, along with the rest of the Chamossiere.

The Stash, the first giant ecological snow park comes to Europe
Avoriaz has brought to Europe a new generation of 100% natural snow playgrounds: "The Stash".
New concept in snowparks imported from the Californian resort of North Star. It was developed by Jake Burton himself, famous for his visions on the future of snowboard.
Situated in the middle of a large expanse of un-groomed snow it is ideal for trying out wide turns in powder snow. These slopes wind in and out of the trees in the Lindarets forest and are punctuated with hidden wooden obstacles all around the circuits that skiers stumble across when hurtling down a ‘secret passage’. You have to ski or snowboard down the same slope many times to discover all the concealed modules.
