Champéry is great for intermediate skiers looking for a quiet time in a stunning place, however the cost is high. Access to Avoriaz is fairly easy - and there may be good snow in France when the Swiss side is suffering.
Champéry is on the Swiss side of the Portes du Soleil region, with fairly quick links to Avoriaz in France, and to the valley between Avoriaz and Châtel.
Pros
Charmingly rustic mountain village
Access to Portes du Soleil circuit
Quiet, relaxed - yet plenty to do off the slopes
Cons
Lift system is antiquated
Local slopes suffer from the sun
No runs back to the village
Not good for beginners
