Les Gets
Les Gets is a charming and stunning little village that is situated just next to Morzine on the Swiss-French border, that is a perfect ski holiday destination for families. With Geneva airport only 1 hour away, its short transfer means if you get an early flight you can be skiing by lunchtime. Les Gets is part of the massive Portes du Soleil ski area and your ski pass will cover a staggering 650km of piste (406 miles) that include great resorts such as Morzine, Avoriaz, Chatel, Champery and Torgan. Whatever type of ski holiday you want, we have a wide choice of winter Les Gets ski holiday packages to choose from where you can fly from your local regional airport.
The Les Gets ski area itself is only 110km and ranges from 1,172m to 2,002m. It is mainly filled with blue and red runs all covered under the local pass, so it is an ideal destination for children and beginners learning to ski. As there is a large amount of skiing in Les Gets there is no need to get a full area Portes du Soleil ski pass unless you want to.
The Les Gets ski resort is at 1,172m and is located between Lake Geneva and Mont Blanc in the heart of the Portes du Soleil ski area. The town itself is flat and surrounded by trees, and when covered in snow it really looks like a true winter wonderland and is one of our top family resorts. Most of the local architecture is in a traditional French Savoyard style, so the town is filled with charming wood and stone chalets. There are many restaurants and bars filled with local charm but if they are not enough for you Morzine is only a few minutes away.
