You've undoubtedly heard of Portes du Soleil, it's one of the largest ski areas in the world. Portes du Soleil consists of 12 ski resorts, both in Switzerland and in France, including Avoriaz, Champery and Morzine. In total, the area has 195 lifts and a total of 266 slopes. You won't get tired of it here. In addition to well-prepared slopes at all levels and a really awesome range of off-piste, there are also nine snow parks (!), perfect when you want to perform tricks on rails and boxes. As many as five of the snow parks are located in Avoriaz.
When visiting Portes du Soleil you never have to take the same descent more than once (unless, of course, you want to). The area is massive and there seems to be new slopes and lifts all the time. With a single lift pass, you get access to the entire Portes du Soleil, i.e. 12 ski resorts and two countries. This is an area skiers dream of and you'll probably understand why...
