Geneva to Morzine transfers available upon booking
Panoramic mountain views
7 peaks in the area
Morzine offers authentic Savoyard charm whilst being in the heart of the Portes du Soleil ski area with easy access to the whole region including Les Gets and Avoriaz.
Spreading out along both sides of a river gorge, the resort of Morzine looks beautiful and charming both in the winter and the summer months.
Although there is plenty of apres-ski, Morzine is very much a family resort with a wonderfully relaxed atmosphere.
Its location makes it easily accessible by car and it is only an hour’s drive from Geneva. Indeed, a car is very useful in Morzine to reach the quieter lifts, though not essential as there is a good local bus service.
One of the many benefits of Morzine is its location, whether your preference is to travel by car, train or plane.
Our Morzine apartments are centrally located for access to all the town’s amenities and close to the lifts for those wanting to ski Morzine and the Portes du Soleil.

“Clean, modern and well looked after apartments, with the perfect set up for bikes in summer. The chalet has the added bonus of being only a 2 minute walk to the supermarket next door, so you could grab food quickly anytime you needed something. They also have a bike workshop, kitted out with work stands, track pumps and basic Allen keys, that is free for all guests to use. This was our 4th stay at Aiglon now, and definitely won’t be the last! So five stars all around.”
