Avoriaz Ski Holidays

Avoriaz ski resort is one of the liveliest in the region. With the Portes du Soleil on the doorstep, there is a vast and thrilling area available to ski, offering around 600km to explore. Sitting at 1,800m and with lifts going as high as 2,466m, Avoriaz can guarantee fabulous snow conditions all season long. A large area of varied runs provides plenty of skiing to satisfy those of all abilities. One of the most famous is the Swiss Wall, an incredibly steep 400m run. Covered with moguls, this is one run that’s certainly not for the faint-hearted.

Avoriaz ski resort is a boarder’s paradise with good lifts, nearby beginner areas and some of the most extensive and well-looked-after terrain parks in the world. Freestylers will want to head to one of Avoriaz’s five terrain parks; such as the fantastic Stash park packed with rails and jumps. Freeriders will enjoy the powder bowls and cliff drops dotted around the Portes du Soleil. If you can, grab a guide and hike out to find some phenomenal untouched powder.

There are several childcare options in Avoriaz ski resort. The ESF ski school offer a children’s nursery, as well as a Les P’tits Loups and Jack Frosts who look after children as young as three months old. The resort also has a range of private nanny services, who can provide additional packages such as evening babysitting.

Avoriaz ski resort offers the option to ski directly to the bars once you are finished on the slopes, head to La Brasserie or Chez Flo for live music, scenic sun terraces and a steady flow of drinks to enjoy in the late afternoon sunshine. With the slopeside location of the ski resort’s accommodation, you can easily take a trip home to change out of your ski boots. If you’re looking for a late-night spot, head to the resort’s nightclub Le Yak for regular DJ sets that guarantee music into the early hours.
