There's no shortage of superlatives to describe the most accessible of the major ski areas.

Les Carroz: 1140m: the picture postcard!
Les Carroz is a delightful combination of traditional Alpine chalets, a warm village atmosphere, amenities and activities for all generations. Stroll through this relaxing atmosphere and savour the pleasures of the mountains.
Winter or summer, there's no shortage of reasons to give your stay a special flavour: nights in an igloo, markets, gourmet or alpine restaurants, the Aquacîmes centre... You'll be spoilt for choice.
Morillon: 700-1100m: the Olympic champion resort
Conviviality on the village side, escape on the resort side: choose between 2 sites linked by gondola. Imagine a small village of traditional houses in a valley, with easy access to the downhill and cross-country ski runs, the leisure centre and white-water activities. Take to the heights, on the plateau of the wooded Les Esserts site, at the gateway to the Grand Massif, and set off on skis or wander around the chalet residences and shops.
Families will love the pedestrian-friendly nature of the area, and the famous Olympic champion Antoine Dénériaz is just around the corner.
