  • Fresh snow conditions in Morzine Avoriaz

    With all the snow that arrived over the last few days we decided to drive up to Avoriaz and take a hike up the Arare and get as close to the peak of Les Hauts Forts as possible.

    Within a couple of hours we were close to the peak but could not make it right to the top due to the risk of slides and sluffing snow. The walk was certainly  worth it though as we got fresh tracks in thigh deep powder with blue skies all the way back down to the town.

    There is so much snow in Morzine and Avoriaz and it is still snowing now. All the snow cannons are firing so it looks that we may be having an early start to the season.

    If you want to make good use of the early snow we still have a few places left for pre Xmas Flexi Breaks w/c 14th Dec  click here for more details.

    I can see the top but it is a long way away!!

    The view from the halfway point. Still a way to go!!
