For rustic, quiet Swiss charm in a ski region known for its hustle and bustle, Champery is a great option.
The resort has direct access into the Portes du Soleil and its 600km of slopes, with particularly quick access into the runs above Morzine and Avoriaz. Unfortunately, there’s no run back down to town, so you’ll either have to download the main gondola or ski down to the base of Grand Paradis a little up the valley and catch the bus back down.
As mentioned, the village itself is very pretty and traditionally Swiss, with cosy restaurants serving up hearty fondues and raclettes and family-run hotels dominating the scene. Getting here is very easy from Geneva – the drive takes around an hour and a half whilst the train takes a little over two hours.

Switzerland
Updated 24/03
the first Nordstau of the season (in late March, would you believe it) is set to bring excellent conditions across particularly eastern reaches of the country through the middle of this week. Unsettled conditions moving in from the north plummet temperatures, with the freezing line taking a long walk off a short pier through this period; dropping from a daytime high above 2,000m on Wednesday to sea level overnight into Friday.
With this unsettled weather will come excellent snowfall; the west will see useful top ups of around 20cm falling on Wednesday afternoon and throughout Thursday, whereas the east will see bumper conditions with up to 2ft expected down at the same time. This will peak on Thursday, when c.50cm is expected down over higher ground.
Expect the avalanche forecast to climb over this period, as this new snow may well be sitting on a spring freeze-thaw crust and/or a very wet snowpack thanks to spring melt.
Things will return to a more spring-like norm as the weekend arrives, with spring freeze-thaw cycles in play and plenty of sun; a few lingering clouds will bring snowfall on Sunday and into the new week, but it remains a bit too far out to say exactly how much will fall, when, and where.
