Skiing in Les Gets
When renting a chalet in Les Gets, you have access to the vast Portes du Soleil ski area. Located between Mont Blanc in southeastern France and Lake Geneva in Switzerland, Portes du Soleil encompasses 12 interlinked ski resorts and is naturally divided into two parts, connected by a short town train ride at Morzine. The larger area to the east links French Avoriaz and Chatel with Swiss Morgins, Champery and other small villages. To the west is the smaller area of slopes shared by Morzine and Les Gets.
Whilst the Portes du Soleil is a huge area, this shouldn’t put beginner skiers off. Most popular with those learning to ski is the area around the villages of Avoriaz, Morzine and Les Gets with plenty of gentle terrain to master the basics on.
Les Gets has a free ski zone for beginners accessible from the top of the Chavanne chairlift and three green pistes nearby. In the same area, children will delight in the “Le Grand Cry” family snow park which features totem poles, American Indian decorations and a variety of small tunnels and jumps to try.
Competent skiers can explore most of the Portes du Soleil circuit and its offshoots with confidence, whilst expert skiers will find various black runs dotted around the ski area, the most famous of these being the Swiss Wall which is reputed to be one of the hardest mogul runs in Europe.
