Champéry

Comprising over 650m of pistes, the Portes du Soleil ski area links the well-known villages of Champery, Avoriaz, Les Gets, Morzine and Champoussin, enabling skiers to criss-cross all day between France and Switzerland. Champery is located beneath the dramatic Dents-du-Midi mountains. The village, with its own supply of boutiques, restaurants and terraces, is situated at an altitude of 1050m with a cable car taking guests from the centre of the village straight up to 2200m. From here skiers and boarders head out, enjoying a huge variety of pistes and exploring different areas of the Portes du Soleil each day. There are over 90 restaurants, giving plenty of opportunities for a mid-morning coffee, a quick snack or a traditional mountain gourmet lunch.
