Ski-holidays Champéry

Reviews in Champéry

The ski holiday village Champéry lies in the Valais region in the Swiss part of the Portes du Soleil ski area. It is situated at the foot of the mountain Dents du Midi in the Swiss Alps. From Champéry the Swiss as well as the French villages of Les Portes du Soleil are all easily accessible. In Champéry they still have the real authentic atmosphere of a Swiss Alp-village and this is excellent with the most modern facilities. Beautiful hotels, great and good ski lifts and parking spaces down at the gondola. The good facilities and the fantastic skiing possibilities make Champéry an excellent ski resort for the whole family.

Pisteinformatie Portes du Soleil - Champéry

Plaine Dranse, containing perhaps the most beautiful slopes of the area, starting from Avoriaz, is easily accessible. This valley has plenty to offer for skiers and snowboarders of every skill level. Beginners often gravitate to the area around Le Pleney, directly accessible by ski-tram or cabin lift. One of the most challenging slopes can be found around the famous Col de Joux Plane where beautiful, long, black runs go all the way down into the valley. In the Swiss part is the very challenging Mur at Chavanette (towards Avoriaz.)

Champéry has a vibrant nightlife. Many bars and cafes and many on-piste restaurants. The dare-devils may even want to try a bungee jump from the gondola!

Snowboarden in Champéry

Portes du Soleil offers a ski holiday with everything a snowboarder could wish for including a few plate-lifts, lots of off-piste opportunities, some great boarder cross slopes (especially those in Nyon, near Morzine), and snow parks. The off-piste runs from the Col du Fornet are great, and offer an abundance of powder nearly year-round. Snowboarders that like to descend past the tree lines can enjoy beautiful areas in the Les Gets neighborhood.
