Fancy some fresh air? Need to escape, find time to breathe and explore amid soothing natural surroundings? Then you’ll find what you’re looking for in Morzine. What’s more, the resort of Morzine has been ‘Famille Plus’-certified since 2007. With family-friendly accommodation, services, facilities and activities (swimming, treetop adventure trails, mountain biking, pony rides and more), Morzine is the ultimate resort for families!
To prove it, here’s our Top 5 of the reasons to bring your family to our beautiful resort this summer!
1 – Great deals for the whole family
The Multi-Pass gives you access to an endless number of activities in the Portes du Soleil! This unique pass offers a host of activities at a very attractive price.
The Multi-Pass comes in various versions to suit every holidaymaker: ‘Multi-Pass Séjour’ for those staying in accommodation provided by a Multi-Pass partner, ‘Multi-Pass Journée’ if you’re just exploring for the day, or ‘Multi-Pass Saison’ if you live close enough to the Portes du Soleil to visit regularly throughout the season.
You’ve guessed it, the Multi-Pass gives you unlimited access to a host of activities, and discounts on others, in all the Portes du Soleil resorts. You can buy one at the lift cash desks.
2 – Outdoor activities to keep the whole family happy
- Summer luge: Sledging isn’t just a winter activity! From 9 July, you can hurtle down the summer luge runs installed at Le Pléney (from the top of the Crusaz chairlift). You can choose between a thrilling, steep descent that gets the adrenalin flowing, and a gentler run for the less daring.
- Biathlon: this is no longer a sport reserved for Olympic champions. The completely safe laser rifles mean that anyone can get a feel of what it’s like to be a biathlete. With family or friends, you’ll enjoy an unforgettable experience and the thrill of shooting at targets.
- Horseriding: At Morzine riding stables you can go hacking, take beginner lessons or a whole course, not to mention all the activities organised for children relating to farm animals and ponies.
- Paddleboarding: Have a go at paddleboarding. A qualified instructor will guide you for your first attempt or help you perfect your technique, against the spectacular mountain backdrop of Montriond Lake.
