In a nutshell
un vrai village de traditions
helsbels Says: Every Thursday through the winter Morzine has floodlit night skiing/boarding on the bottom of the Plenney. It's only one run but if you just can't get enough of the white stuff (snow) then it gives you an extra few hours of the slopes! Its from around 6pm til 9pm (thats a...
helsbels Says: Morzine has its own ice rink and its own ice hockey team. They are the Penguins! Various games through the winter mostly on Wednesday and Saturday nights, sometimes just friendlies or play offs but you could be lucky enough to catch a big game. Ticket prices depend on the...
1 Review and 27 Opinions Flemish host, friendly staff, nice rooms and good (Belgian style) kitchen. No smoking, thus I had to...

Mel's Cafe: Fast and fresh food - Excelent Price
fiuzatec Says: Between Avoriaz and Morzine Station. Take a break on this non-expensive restaurant. Look for it between the 2 stations, it worst the stop ! Breakfeast, Lunch, dinnerhttp://www.caribousport.com/mels_cafe.html
La Flamme: Best fondue in town
timlloydlangston Says: This is a tiny gem of a restaurant and you'll have to book to get in during the season as it only has a dozen tables. Its speciality is local food, but don't go for the tartiflette - it's great but there's much more fun to be had. At this restaurant you can griddle your own...
La Chamade: Gormet cuisine, strange carvings
timlloydlangston Says: Since 1970 the family Thorens have run this quirky restaurant which deserves its popularity. The bizzare wood carvings out the front shouldn't put you off - the food is incredible. The chef takes the usual regional specialities and addas a twist of their own. Our group had...
L'Auberge de la Combe a Zore: Wide range of great food
timlloydlangston Says: A warm welcome is guaranteed at the Auberge - the open fire grill is right next to the front door! This is a great place to eat if you're with a big group who can't decide what style of food you want. Their pizzas are made fresh and are some of the best in town, they'll...
Bar Robinson: The home of MUTZIG
Caddy Says: Bar Robinson serves just one beer on tap - MUTZIG. It's about 7%, so be warned!This is a fantastic place to hang out after a hard day on the slopes skiing or snowboarding. Last orders is at 7.30pm and you will be shown the door if you are not out by 8pm.
Dixies Bar: 'Happening place' (apparently)
timlloydlangston Says: The nightlife in Morzine is not it's big selling point, although there are some bars in town that aren't like the Moon (lacking any atmosphere). Dixies is actually a series of small bars all linked together and is a bit of a rabbit warren. It's loud and lively and I was at...
londonbabe Says: During the winter seasin there is an excellent system of free shuttle buses around the resort. In theory you should show your ski pass to qaulify, but no one does.The most frequent one goes to Avoriaz every 15 minutes or so, but others run to Ardent and Noyon.However, they...
inthebloodclothing.com: Seasonnaire clothing
mikejfinlay Says: We got our seasonnaire hoodie from www.inthebloodclothing.com last season and they were wicked - cheaper than the other clothing (40 euros hoodie but you can get t-shirts too for 25euros) and cheaper than buying from their site when you e-mail them and buy them out...
timlloydlangston Says: Tuesday night is the night that chalet-maids get their night off. Hence a lot of the chalets occupants will head into town to find some food. Whilst its OK to turn up 'on-spec' any other day of the week, it's definitely worth booking on a Tuesday. When we left the Auberge...
helsbels Says: This advice is common sense for most of us travellers but having had my bag stolen through my own silliness i thought i would mention it!! Don't leave things unattended, not just bags but also coats, hats etc cameras and phones. As i say, it's common sense and you could get...
JosM Says: When making a car-tour to the Col de Joux-Plane, we parked our car on the parking lot at curb on the left side of the road (coming from Morzine). We walked around the lake and had a drink in the restaurant nearby. When we came back to our car, we noticed that our car had...
Zirpsis Says: Paragliding from mountaintop!!! Only for the dare devils: jump off the top of a mountain and glide down to a village beneath. At Morzine/Avoriaz region, I saw many paragliders and it looks like such great fun.
JosM Says: On the way from Morzine to Avoriaz, one crosses Les Lindarets - the goat village - where goats freely roam across the streets. Especially exciting for children who can easily come close to the peacefull goats and caress them.

Ice Hockey - the planets most violent sport
timlloydlangston Says: Morzine has an ice hockey squad that plays in both exhibition matches and league events at the big ice rink in the valley. You'll see posters advertising the fixtures all over town. Matches are split into 3 20 minute periods and last about 3 hours. With unlimited...
Excellent skiing opportunities
timlloydlangston Says: In the winter skiing and snowboarding dominate Morzine. It's part of the massive Ports du Solei ski Area which comprises a whole series of linked resorts. Morzine's achilles heel is its altitude (1,000m) which measn its the first to suffer if things turn warmer. However I...
Flash72 Says: Hire your kit from Francois Baude ski shop, it's 20 yds from the Pleney Telecabine and you can leave your kit there at no extra charge. Saves you having to march back and forth in your boots. January cost for 7 full days is 110 euros.
cadzand Says: Deep in a little valley gentle curves stretch as far as the Swiss frontier. Morzine is a village which is keen to preserve the gentle pace of life and authentic Savoyard charm. Right in the heart of th Portes du Soleil area, it is an ideal point from which to set out and...
