Need to disconnect from your hectic city life? Nothing beats fresh mountain air for that! Combine it with a sporting activity and you're well on your way! That's why today we're introducing you to Avoriaz.
A fully pedestrian ski resort climbing up to 2,000 meters of altitude, you can say goodbye to pollution and breathe deeply!
You could, for example, book a Paris Avoriaz trip for €35 or a Lyon Avoriaz trip from just €15! At that price, it would be a shame to miss out, and trust us, your health will thank you!
As for accommodation, there's something for every taste. Whether you'd rather be pampered in a hotel, treat yourself by renting an authentic wooden chalet, or choose independence by opting for a private rental, there'll definitely be an option for you! You can find all the offers on the Avoriaz 1800 website, especially in the Bons Plans (Deals) section.
For an even wider choice of rentals in Avoriaz, feel free to check out the equivalents in Morzine Avoriaz, just a few kilometers from the resort. Find accommodation listings and promotions by clicking the links.
If you can't decide between Avoriaz 1800 and Morzine Avoriaz, we recommend getting a feel for both resorts via the Avoriaz 1800 webcam and the Morzine Avoriaz webcam.
More generally, take altitude into account. Morzine is only at 1,230 meters. It all depends on how much you love skiing. If you do, keep a close eye on promotions, especially by checking Morzine's deals page! Indeed, beyond special offers for your hotel in Avoriaz or rental, you'll also find deals such as -10% on your ski pass or discounts for families!
