Nyon estate
Presentation
The Pointe de Nyon leisure area is a sector dedicated to contemplation and discovery of the mountain, its inhabitants and their activities.
The Pointe de Nyon leisure area is more than just a ski area. It’s for skiing, contemplation and discovering the mountain, its inhabitants and their activities.
This area is accessible on skis from Morzine centre or Les Gets, or on skis or foot by the Pointe de Nyon cable car. There is a large free car park at the bottom of the cable car and free shuttle buses from the centre of Morzine.
At the top of the cable car is the Pointe de Nyon restaurant, nestling at an altitude of 1,500m, which also houses the aviaries of the Aigles du Léman.
Le pas de l'Aigle: the immensity of the Alps beneath your feet
Perched at an altitude of 2019 metres, the pas de l'Aigle offers visitors a unique vertiginous sensation. A 15-metre footbridge, boldly clinging to the mountain, offers a thrill that promises to make your heart beat faster. It offers 350 metres of vertical drop below and a breathtaking panorama between Mont Blanc and Lake Geneva. Get ready for a memorable adventure!
You can also admire the sculpture created by Morzine artist Robert Vernet...
Access on skis via the pointe de Nyon chairlift.
*Price: Free (with ski pass)
Snowshoe outing :
In Nyon, set off on a winter snowshoeing adventure! This adventure will allow you to discover the natural beauty of this peaceful little corner of Morzine.
This experience gives you the chance to immerse yourself in the snow-covered fir trees.
To keep little ones entertained and to learn more about the local wildlife head out on the short educational wildlife walk. Starting right by the cable car station, it’s an easy signed walk of around 30-45 minutes with information panels about local wildlife. Using the Locafaune app you can even tag animals that are spotted and participate in the preservation work.
