Piste update for half term!

piste update for the half term holidays, commencing this Sunday 11/02.

Domaine skiable et de loisirs de Morzine will adapt their lift opening times for the school holidays to ensure as many skiers and snowboarders get up into the mountains as quickly and easily as possible. The following extended lift opening times stay in place until 9th March.

🚠 Télécabine du Pleney now opens at 8.30am each morning
🚡 The Mouilles chairlift opens at 9am (this is handy because you can pop out of the télécabine, ski half way down Piste B and jump on the Mouillés to avoid the Belvedere, which is a fun little run first thing)
⛷️ The Crusaz chairlift (the one outside ) will also open during the school holidays from 9am until 4pm (closed between 12noon and 1pm). Cruzas connects to Mouilles so it’s easy to get to the top of Pleney for ski lessons using this lift combo.
🏂 Piste B remains open and perfectly skiable, so you can still ski directly back into the village. The Lièvre piste from the Nyon plateau back to the Nyon parking / bus stop is also fully functioning.

With a bit of luck (and stay tuned for updates) we’ll see some fresh snow fall on the pistes of over the next seven days, but regardless, conditions are good the higher you go and the beginner areas are still fully functional.

Let’s go half term skiers!!! 📸 Pic from yesterday on Pleney

Slope update for all those heading out in the next week! 😀

& PISTE UPDATE: If you’re heading our way this weekend, you might be interested to know how much of the local ski area is currently open…

⛷️ In Domaine skiable et de loisirs de Morzine 91 of ski lifts are open and 56% of pistes
⛷️ In Les Gets 92% of ski lifts are open and 66% of pistes
⛷️ In Avoriaz 1800 97% of ski lifts are open and 83% of pistes
⛷️ in Roc d'Enfer 87% of ski lifts are open and 61% of pistes

There’s a good variety of green, blue, red and black pistes open across the local area, including all the beginners zones and kids play areas.

Also note that where pistes are closed, it’s often because they’re being prepared or there’s maintenance underway, it’s not always a snow situation.

❄️ And the general consensus on the treadmill at the Hive this morning was that a big weather change will arrive in the next seven days.
