Morzine sits at 1000m, so resort-level snow can be scarce. This puts considerable pressure on the lift system up to the higher spots, which are not all well linked. Morzine was first a town, later becoming a ski resort – as a result there is more to do than in your average purpose-built resort. The town itself offers a decent selection of shops and more non-skiing activities than you will need in a week. Accommodation covers a wide range in terms of size, age and price. Traffic in the town can sometimes be frustrating.

Overall, Morzine is a good base, especially if skiing is not the only thing you want to do in the Alps. The snow is occasionally unreliable but, if you can stand the queues at rush hour, you will soon have all the benefits of the Portes du Soleil and nearby Avoriaz.
