Forecast today: Clear skies
There is more than enough variety in the local slopes to keep all but the keenest skiers and boarders happy for a week.
Almost all the pistes are rated blue or red, but there is a good beginner zone at the summit of the Chavannes gondola and there are some steeper blacks at Mont Chery, as well as some extensive freeride terrain at Chamossiรจre above Morzine. The woods afford excellent protection in bad weather, but just note that the altitude is low, so snow quality can suffer early and late in the season.
The town itself is pretty and is dominated by traditional, chalet-style buildings. Basing yourself at the base of the Chavannes gondola and express chair affords you the best access to the slopes and the quickest access to the linked ski area. On-mountain restaurants are plentiful and usually of a high standard, whilst in town there are also some good bars and dining options.
Although there are a couple of short drags on the edge of town, the best beginner slopes are located at mid-mountain level, at the top of the Chavannes gondola. Longer greens are hard to come by, but there are a number of gentle blues that offer good progression for early intermediates. More confident skiers and boarders will be able to enjoy the vast majority of the Les Gets- Morzine ski area โ our favourite runs are the long reds served by the recently built Ranfoilly Express.
Exploring the rest of the Portes du Soleil is well worth it for confident intermediates upwards โ advanced and expert skiers should certainly buy the full lift pass and explore all 580km of slopes. Locally however, there are some decent steep runs at Mont Chery and also above Morzine in the Nyon and Chamossiรจre sectors โ where the best off piste can also be found.
Les Gets is attractive, with most buildings low-rise and constructed from wood in a traditional style โ this is no high-rise concrete jungle like Avoriaz. The main street is lined with shops selling local produce and wine, whilst numerous restaurants and bars give it a lively and appealing feel. There are some good hotels, but also a great deal of chalet accommodation in the resort โ lots of British tour operators run several chalets here.
The resort has a great selection of winter activities to keep kids and non- skiers occupied โ including nursery and kindergarden options โ making this a great family destination, or ideal for a mixed group containing non-skiers.
Winter walking and snowshoeing are popular, whilst cross country skiing is also available.

Warm temperatures start the weekend, with the freezing line hitting 4,000m during the midday sun on Friday. This will fall, however, over the course of the long weekend, eventually hitting 2,000m on Monday evening and staying low throughout the new week.
Cloud will dominate this weekend, and with it will come precipitation. This will begin as rain on Saturday, but as things turn cooler this will turn to snow, with around 5cm falling across the region over Sunday evening, Monday and throughout Tuesday; this will fall on higher ground only as the freezing line remains on or just above 2,000m. High pressure returns in the middle of the week with plenty of fine, dry and bright conditions
Thus concludes this season’s snow overviews; thank you to everyone who has read them this season, and we look forward to seeing you again next year!
