Morzine: A Guide to the Resort of Morzine
For everything you need to know about Morzine visit
Morzine is one of the towns in the massive Portes du Soleil, a ski area that stretches across thirteen resorts through France and Switzerland.
Morzine was originally a small farming and mining town, the first lift to be installed here was the Pleney cable car in 1934 and since then the town has grown into a full on resort with all the trappings you'd expect whilst still retaining it's traditional French charm.
Morzine sits in the Haute Savoie region of France just over an hour from Geneva airport, making it one of the easiest resorts to reach from the UK.
The town lies on two sides of the Dranse river that flows through the bottom of the valley, the sides of which are adorned with traditionally styled wooden chalets with slate roofs. There are almost no high rise buildings in Morzine and as this helped the town keep it's charm.
There are some excellent Hotels in Morzine like The Farmhouse but most of the accommodation is in self contained, independent chalets. In many cases these are run by families who fell in love with Morzine and never wanted to leave and they offer excellent facilities and service at very competitive rates.
The centre of Morzine is the Tourist Office and from here it's a short walk to the lifts on either side of the valley that will take you up to either Morzine and Les Gets or Avoriaz and the further Portes du Soleil.
As Morzine is still a town rather than just a resort it is possible to drive around but for those without their own transport there is a free bus system that starts and finishes at the foot of Le Pleney but accesses the Prodians, Super Morzine and Ardent lift stations.
Of course no French town would be complete without a bakery and there are several in Morzine, the most popular being the Bonboniere de Tavernier. Here you'll find artisanal chocolates and excellent French pastries and cakes.
Morzine also has some good shops, most of them are here to service the skiers and snowboarders but there are some shops offering shoes, jewellery and clothing as well as gifts and souvenirs.
For skiers and snowboarders there are several big chain stores like Intersport where you can rent and buy equipment as well as smaller in dependant stores like Slopestyle, Attack Attack and the Woods.
The town also has some great bars and restaurants. Bar Robbinson or Robbos as it's locally known is a tiny French café bar with a legendarily strong beer; Mutzig. It's a must for any visitor and always popular with the locals.
For live sport the Dixie Bar just next door has several huge screens and is always packed during the Six Nations Rugby and big Football matches.
Up near the tourist office The Cavern, Crepu and Tibetan Café are always popular especially on a Tuesday night when the Chalet staff have their night off.
For a more civilised affair try the Beanies for cocktails, the Coup de Couer wine bar on the high street or the hipster Micro Brewery the Bec Juane at the top of town.
Between these bars and the late night venues like Opera and Cafe Chaud Morzine has a great apres ski and night life but if fine food rather than beer and music is your idea of a night out then you will not be disappointed with Le Grange, Chaumade or Ferme de Frutiere.
Morzine also has two cinemas and a swimming pool complex as well as it's own ice hockey team; The Penguins. Added to this options to go paragliding, husky dog sledging and snow mobiling and it is a great winter destination even for those who don't ski.
Morzine is a very picturesque town. It feels like a French town rather than a ski resort but in the last few years it has installed new lifts and sports facilities and new bars and restaurants have begun emerging meaning that it can hold it's own against many of the big name resorts in the Alps.
With it's charm and quality as well as it's location, just an hour from an airport and in the middle of one of the biggest ski areas in the world Morzine really is one of our favourite winter destinations.

In this video we're snowboarding for the first time in Morzine! This is an incredible town in the french alps with buildings dating back to the fifteenth century. We made our way up the the peak of Morzine in search of the best snow. We managed to find a epic snowboarding from the peak, along with some epic views of the french alps. I was riding my T Rice snowboard and attempting some ollies off the powder wind lips. Morzine ended up being one of the best powder and free ride snowboarding of our trip! There are many more resorts for us to explore here in Port Du Soleil. Tomorrow we're snowboarding at Avoriaz and will check out the Burton Stash park. The Stash has a reputation for having all wooded features. Thanks for watching!
