Les Gets, the gateway to one of the world's largest ski areas

Always wanted to ski in one of the world's largest ski areas? Then head to Les Gets, one of the 12 resorts in the Les Portes du Soleil area. This ski area is on the border between France and Switzerland and has a whopping 600 km of slopes!

Les Gets-Morzine covers 120 km of this massive packed snow ski area, and you'll find slopes to suit all tastes and levels! This Haute-Savoie ski resort has areas for beginners as well as more technical slopes for experienced skiers. Your little ones can practice their skills on the Cowboy run or in the Indian village, while the whole family can enjoy racing in the boardercross zone and try new tricks in the snowpark... or have fun watching everyone else!

Incredible, panoramic picture-postcard views of the Alps!

But a trip to the mountains involves much more than just skiing: there are loads of holiday activities near the holiday accommodation! Sledging, a playground, ice rink, electric snowmobiles, hiking, snowshoeing, canoe-hiking, cross-country skiing... And if you need a break from outdoor activities, you can get your cultural fill at the art gallery, go to the cinema, visit the library or tour the Mechanical Music Museum.

There are also several nurseries in the resort to keep your little ones busy: don't worry, they'll be in good hands with the professional child carers!

Les Gets, a 4-season resort: what are the summer activities?

Did you know that there are more kilometres of mountain bike trails than ski runs in Les Gets? So in addition to its winter sports reputation, the resort has been a go-to cycling destination for over 30 years! The resort is Europe's leading Mountain Bike resort. There's something for everyone: e-bikes, road bikes, enduro or downhill mountain bikes...

Don't be nervous, there are areas suited to all levels including the Kid Zone and beginner cycle paths.

Some ski lifts are open in summer, so mountain bikers and walkers can easily reach the peaks. Whether you're a seasoned hiker or just fancy a leisurely stroll, you can easily reach the heights to admire the Northern Alps' scenery.

You'll find plenty of original activities during summer:

Ever heard of Geocaching? It's a nature treasure hunt: your kids will have a blast!

Practise your swing on the 18-hole Golf des Gets that faces Mont Blanc.

And then there's the must-see Alta Lumina! Explore an enchanted forest when night falls! Follow the music-maker in his hot air balloon along an illuminated night-time trail. Feel the poetic fairy tale magic of this immersive experience that uses lights, images and scenographies.
