Survival Guide
Your Morzine neighbourhood survival guide. Below are some of our favourite spots, on and off the mountain.
La Paika
An old farmhouse in the most authentic setting, La Paika serves up meats cooked al fresco on a wood-fired BBQ. You need to be comfy with red runs but it’s oh-so worth it.
Le Changabang – top of Les Prodains
Right at the top of the Les Prodains cable car lift is Le Changabang, the best mountain burger money can buy. With curly fries, too. Love.
One for the night owls. If you’re up for a laugh, grab your group and go night time tobogganing. Can we all just be kids again?
La Bonbonnière – 129 Rte de la Plagne
Walk 15 minutes into the heart of town and you’ll find the most amazing bakery, La Bonbonnière. You’ll struggle to leave without a treat, even if you just wanted a stick of bread. The almond croissants are a staple.
Le Petit Lindaret – Les Lindarets
Savoyard cooking is a staple in Morzine – essentially cheese and potato. Sounds good to us! Find the best in Les Lindarets a 20-minute drive away, famous for its free-roaming goats, at a place called Le Petit Lindaret. Order their Tartiflette, a great hangover cure if you can handle the cheese!
Top of Super Morzine
Head to the top of the Super Morzine bubble on a sunny day and you’ll find Les Griolles, smack bang in the afternoon sun with deck chairs and plenty of wine.
Morzine Market – Place de la Poste
If you’re after some local ‘fromage’ for your pals back home, head to the food market on Wednesday from 8am-12pm. Raclette. Galore. Busy? Le Pelio is also a great option for cheese, open every day of the week.
Le Telebene – top of Zore
At the top of the Zore chair lift is a little snack shack called Le Telebene, serving up banging pastries and a killer view. A must-visit.
Lac de Montriond
If you’re after a day off the slopes – or perhaps you don’t ski/snowboard – head to Lac de Montriond (10 mins by car) for a walk around the lake with stunning views. It’s about 2.5km and is perfect for blowing away the cobwebs.
La Folie Douce Avoriaz – Route de l’Alpage
Apres wouldn’t be apres without mentioning La Folie Douce Avoriaz, if you can find it – follow the noise. It’s got a brilliant restaurant, banging atmosphere and we recommend you book a VIP table.
Le Tremplin Hotel – 166 Taille de Mas du Pleney
If you’re after something a little more dancey, first head to the bar at Le Tremplin at the bottom of the Pleney bubble. Heaters, DJs, live music, the lot, with a view of the mountains no less. Then move on to The Cavern Bar, Morzine’s very own full-fat live music bar for lots – and lots – of dancing.
Ski Runs
The best ski runs for beginners and pros, early risers, forest fans and calm chases.
Tétras
Super Morzine Lift | Blue run
If you’re up for the first lifts, it’s always tempting to head up Super Morzine and head over into Avoriaz. But instead of that, once you’re off the Zore chair lift, take the blue run Tétras – it’s a wide, sweeping piste, usually untouched and softening in the morning sun.
Ranfoilly
Express Lift | Blue & red runs
Head to the Chavannes area of Morzine and grab the Ranfoilly Express lift up out of the bowl. At the very top, if the sky is clear, are incredible views of Mont Blanc from a viewing platform. Head early, it’s popular and the run gets chopped up quickly. Take the blue or the red from the top, also used for training by Morzine’s top ski clubs.
Mélèze
Perriéres Express Lift | Red run
If you just want some you time, pop over to La Turche in Les Gets and get the Perriéres Express lift up to Mélèze. It’s lovely red run down, often quiet and in great condition because it’s at the furthest point of the resort.
Les Arbis
Chamossière Chair Lift | Blue run
In the Nyon sector of Morzine is the Chamossière chair lift – a little out of the way, so nice and quiet. Many don’t bother but take it up to a blue run called Les Arbis and you’ll be rewarded with a scenic trip through the trees and the piste almost all to yourself.
‘The Swiss Wall’
Chavanette Chair Lift | Black Run
Over in Avoriaz on the Swiss side sits ‘The Swiss Wall’, one of the hardest runs in Europe. By now, it’ll have moguls the size of a small car and will test even the best on the slopes. It’s a quick route from the Fornet bowl over into Switzerland and the joys of Les Crosset. For those that bail – the chair lift takes people down again too. Enjoy!
