In the heart of the Portes du Soleil, Avoriaz ski resort is a pedestrian / ski-to-your-door / horse drawn sleigh resort. Holiday in a unique place filled with fun activities for everyone.
Situated at the centre of the huge “Portes du Soleil” ski area and perched high at 1800m it looks down over Morzine and beyond. Featuring door step skiing it rivals the Three Valleys for the title of “the largest ski area in Europe”.
The PDS region encompasses the best of the Alps from quiet hamlets to bustling picturesque resorts with lively nightlife and extreme sports. Avoriaz is probably the most distinctive of the Portes du Soleil ski stations, due to its futuristic design and dramatic cliff top location.

English speaking instructors Avoriaz (Morzine & Les Gets). We use fun and effective easy-learning techniques to teach you how to “get the most without using the most” from your skiing and boarding lessons.
Glenn Wellesley, Ski With Ease Ski School Director created our teaching methods. His technique came as a result of a ski racing injury when he lost the physical strength to ski at race-level using orthodox methods so, he researched the latest techniques in bio-mechanics and sports science to find the easiest, most energy-efficient ways to ski. His expertise developed lessons specifically for nervous skiers as well as basing all of our lessons around having fun! It’s our 6th season and our team has now grown to include Board With Ease Snowboard School.
