Typical Itinerary

We have selected the following itinerary for your guided ski holiday. Depending on the group this may change slightly as needed. The instructor-guides are flexible and will tailor the itinerary to meet the groups needs. There will be a meeting between you and your guide at the chalet on arrival night where this can be discussed. All routes are of course weather permitting.

You are free to explore on your own on the days without a guide.

Guided Day 1 (Monday)

Day one is all about finding your feet. The guide will take you through out the local area of Les Get and Morzine allowing you to get your snow-legs back while seeing the local area.

Guided Day 2 (Tuesday)

Day two is about getting some altitude and miles. Today you head to all the way to the other side of the massive Portes Du Soleil. Chatel is the destination by way of the famous Avoriaz.

Guided Day 3 (Thursday)

Day three is back to the local area to improve technique and to try some of the more "challenging" runs. :-)

Guided Day 4 (Friday)

Leaving the best till last day four is about going international. You head to switzerland by way of Avoriaz for a coke and a smile, look out for the infamous Swiss Wall!

Really well organised chalet plus ski extras. I didn't really know what to expect but ended up having a brilliant holiday with really fun people who also love skiing. Would recommend and definitely book again for next year..
