Sitting at 1,800 meters, it’s the highest village in the area. This car-free resort, developed in the 1960s, quickly earned a reputation for its innovative design and eco-friendly practices. Today, it’s a top choice for skiers and snowboarders from around the globe, known for its dependable snow and varied terrain.
You can pick from luxurious chalets, cosy apartments, and stylish hotels, many of which offer ski-in/ski-out convenience. The resort has a fantastic range of ski slopes for all skill levels. Beginners will love the gentle green and blue runs that wind through the village, while more experienced skiers can tackle the extensive red slopes. For those seeking a thrill, Avoriaz has challenging black runs and off-piste options, including the notorious ‘Swiss Wall’ just across the border.
