Avoriaz Opens Early
The high-altitude resort of Avoriaz is well known for its reliable snow record and is opening this weekend (2nd & 3rd December) for some pre-season skiing, as well as being ski tourable for the past few weeks if you're willing to hike for it. People from all over the Morzine and Les Gets area will be heading to Avoriaz to enjoy the quiet pistes and get their early season turns.

With the snow falling in the resort the excitement is building and surprisingly we still have a few properties available for Early December and Christmas weeks in Morzine. So why not book those extra days off work and just on a flight and enjoy some amazing early-season skiing in Morzine and the Portes du Soleil
If you are still undecided on your Christmas plans then we have a fully catered week available in our Flagship Chalet Atlas at £799 per person including all the trimmings.
Snowy Landscape in Avoriaz and Portes Du Soleil
Morzine town gets early December snow
Avoriaz isn't the only town receiving snow at the moment, with big dumps of snow falling in the town of Morzine itself! Sitting lower than Avoriaz, Morzine typically receives less snow throughout the season, and with only the bottom of Le Stade, Retour des Nants and Piste B ending in Morzine it doesn't need as much snow in the town itself for the skiing to still be great, but snow-covered fences and crunching underfoot fills everyone with giddy excitement, even locals who have seen it all before!
