Winter At Chalet Gueret
Morzine’s skiing pedigree dates back to the 1930s when it emerged as one of the first European ski centres. Since then it has slowly but continuously developed opening up 120 km of slopes served by 48 lifts ideally suited to families and beginners.
But Morine itself is only half the story. Its extensive lift system links it into the Portes du Soleil, the world’s second-largest ski area, bringing together 12 resorts including Avoriaz, Les Gets and Chatel to name a few, transforming it into an internationally recognised resort. This vast region features 600 km of ski runs, 208 lifts across 400 square kilometres, and spans two countries. With such variety, there is plenty of both off piste and runs to challenge the most experienced skier.
If downhill skiing isn’t your thing, there are plenty of other activities to enjoy, including ski touring, cross-country skiing, snowshoeing, sleigh or snowmobile rides, ice skating, and swimming and plenty of mountain restaurants accessible to non-skiers.
In addition there is plenty of live music in the town later in the day.

“Where can I start. The chalet was wonderful. It’s such a lovely place to stay, so spacious, very beautifully furnished. I loved the views, the library, the sitting room was perfect. My children loved Santa’s sleigh bed and the sledging in the field above the chalet. There are no faults only compliments.”
