What is there to do in Morzine when there isn’t much snow?

Contrary to popular opinion, the French Alps only have snow for part of the year! This is during European winter months so generally December to April. Usually the snowfall starts in late November/early December and sometimes we receive a lot of snow in the early part of the season and some years less so. Luckily, Morzine is linked to Avoriaz, which is a high altitude resort with a great snow record. Some lower ski resorts don’t have the luxury of being linked into one of the largest ski areas in Europe!

However, outside of the winter season, or sometimes at the start of the season, there are often periods when there is no snow and luckily Morzine has a lot to offer!

French Courses

Of course, being a language school, this is an obvious thing that spring to mind! Why not make the most of your time in France to improve your French? With a variety of courses and activities on offer, you could use our time wisely to work on your language skills!

Water activities

Morzine boasts a great aquatic centre which has a 25m lap pool, a kids pool and a splash pool as well as a spa area. In addition to this, Avoriaz has a new water-world called Aquariaz with slides, water games and much more for hours of fun!

Cycling

If the snow is thin on the ground, ski shops also hire road bikes and mountain bikes and you can explore local routes and even take bikes on some ski lifts to enjoy some downhill mountain biking!

Fitness centre

Mountain Rehab has opened a new fitness centre with spa and treatment rooms. Year-round, seasonal and holiday memberships are available.

Spas

Morzine, Les Gets and Avoriaz are home to numerous spas. See a list here:

Music & Après-Ski

Morzine market

Morzine hosts a local market in the Post Office square every Wednesday morning. Taste local produce such as cheese, saucisson and stock up on fresh organic fruit and veg.

8. Hiking

If there isn’t snow underfoot, then this is a perfect time to explore the mountains by foot. There are some beautiful hiking routes in the area and maps and advice available from the tourist office.
