Nestled in one of the world's most extensive international ski networks, the Portes du Soleil, Morzine provides a vast 650 km of piste suitable for all skiing levels.
Beginners: The Pléney area, characterized by its gentle and sunlit tree-lined slopes, is ideal for novices. Les Gets features "Mappy's Areas," dedicated zones with magic carpets and a tow rope, while the Nyon Plateau's blue runs like Lièvre and Pâquérages offer additional breadth for budding skiers.
Intermediates: The slopes branching from the Pléney télécabine, such as piste B, C, and D, cater wonderfully to intermediate skiers. Super Morzine's Zore and Tetras blue runs, although a tad steep at times, present a suitable challenge. Similarly, the Nyon Plateau's aforementioned blue runs enable intermediates to perfect their skills.
Advanced: While steep terrains aren't the hallmark of Morzine, Pléney's south-facing red runs like Rénard and Fouine, and Les Gets' Chavannes bowl's black runs, including Yeti, offer the thrill factor. Nyon's Aigle Rouge stands out as a challenging slope, with off-piste detours and the formidable Aigle Noir further ramping up the challenge.
Off-piste: Morzine entices off-piste aficionados, especially around the Nyon and Chamossière lifts. Skiers venturing into these areas, such as Pointe d'Angolon, should exercise caution due to terrain irregularities and potential avalanche risks.
Snowboarding: While Morzine isn't a primary destination for snowboard parks, its snowboarding opportunities are enriched by the surrounding areas. Nyon, Morzine's key snowboarding spot, offers a quaint snowpark. Les Gets, on the other hand, is a haven atop Mont Chéry.

4.9/5I usually book flights, transfers, hotel, ski rental and lift passes myself but this year used WeSki for a trip to Morzine. It was so much easier. Everything worked perfectly - transfers arrived on time and there was plenty of feedback throughout the whole process giving you confidence the holiday would go smoothly.
A really useful service that is so much easier to use than other ‘all-inclusive’ sites. It nicely bridges the gap between a travel agent and booking the trip yourself online. I will use WeSki every time I go skiing from now on.
We booked a late minute skiing trip to Morzine through we ski. We looked at booking the trip ourselves but could get anywhere near the price quoted by we ski. The company was excellent and we had no problems at all from start to finish. I would definitely use them to book another weekend skiing trip.
Seamless experience from start to finish. I was spending ages trying to sort out a weekend break and managed to do it with we ski in minutes and for the same price as booking it all up yourself. Flight, transfer and accommodation was all as expected and faultless.
