Morzine is a
picturesque old-style Savoyard town which is centrally located in
the massive Portes-du-Soleil ski area, reputed to be the largest linked ski
area in the world. The town centre remains largely unspoilt and has retained
its character, charm and strong French flavour.
There are activities for the non-skiers, such as Ice Skating,
, Indoor swimming pools, and two Cinemas. There is a plethora of
restaurants ranging from the regional specialities to Pizza and Seafood.
There is a goodly amount of bars with Après-ski being
encouraged in most. Clientele is varied from mainly French in the Irish Coffee
bar, the Dutch tend to use the Crepuscule Indian bar whilst the British seem to
gravitate to the Dixie Bar. All bars have to close at 2 AM after which if, you
can still stand, check out one of the two nightclubs, but remember, the
slopes re-open at 9.00 AM !!!
