Ski Holidays in Avoriaz, France
April 12th, 2010 | by admin |Purpose-built, car-free and constructed high up on the cliffs, Avoriaz is attached to the gigantic Portes du Soleil region and boasts 650km of piste, half in France and half in Switzerland. Overnight accommodation is mainly self-catered apartments in ski-in, ski-out blocks run by big tour providers.
Great for: A family happy to try some a lot more advanced skiing. Great black runs and challenging reds in Portes du Soleil, for the piste-lovers - three snowparks in Avoriaz for freestylers. Those looking for off-piste will find tree runs, powder bowls and cliff drops.
Benefit: Excellent for newbies, as well, with a lot of room for the first-timer. And also the resort is so compact, you can send the kids out to get the morning croissants.
