Our village
Welcome TO MORZINE !
Located at an altitude of 1000 meters, halfway between Mont Blanc and Lake Geneva, the village of Morzine is nestled in a mountain setting, between forests and peaks. The gentle way of life and the authentic charm of a French Alpine village that has lost none of its Upper Savoyard character are cultivated here.

Morzine the authentic, huddled around its small postcard village, with its wooden chalets and its typical slate roofs, rubs shoulders with its close neighbor Avoriaz the visionary, anchored a little higher in the mountain. From their alliance was born “Morzine Avoriaz” : a perfectly complementary double destination.
Morzine Avoriaz is a great place to have fun : skiing, live music, gastronomy, heritage, architecture, contemplation and lazing around… Much more than a destination, it is above all a French art of living, an art of living in the mountains, the art of making and transmitting memories and moments shared from generation to generation. #lovemorzine
You are here in the heart of the Portes du Soleil, one of the largest ski areas in the world, linking 12 resorts over 600 km of skiing. With a Swiss side and a French side comprising 286 runs, this area offers the originality of bringing together two cultures. From the center of Morzine, you can access the Morzine-Les Gets area via the Pleney gondola and via the Super Morzine gondola, you can quickly reach the Avoriaz area and the rest of the Portes du Soleil area.

In September 2021, Morzine Avoriaz was also awarded the “Flocon Vert” label for more sustainable mountain tourism (this distinction was previously awarded to only 8 other French mountain resorts).
Finally, Morzine is at the heart of the Chablais Geopark : from geological forces to human activities, the identity of the Chablais has been shaped over the millennia. An exceptional geological, cultural and human heritage that has earned the territory recognition from UNESCO through the Global Geopark label.
