Morzine
An excellent location for winter and summer sports. Part of the Portes du Soleil ski system, the largest in Europe, with 650km of pistes.
Morzine is a mecca for cyclists in the summer months, both off and on road.
Telipheriques and cable cars are open to take mountain bikers into the hills and for the roadie there are plenty of quiet alpine routes with spectacular views. Several classic alpine passes are within reach of the road cyclist.
Morzine also has plenty of great off road trails for running and a 50m open air swimming pool, permanently laned for swim training. Open in the summer from 8am to 7pm, late night until 9pm on Tuesdays. Lake Montriond is a great venue for open water swimming, once it gets warm enough!
Morzine is only one hours drive from Geneva airport, or, alternatively approx. 8-9h drive from Calais.
Both shared and private transfers to Morzine are available from Ski-lifts.com
