Discover one of Morzines alternative winter activities this season.
With over 650 km of slopes to explore, Morzine is a haven for skiers. However, there are plenty of other winter activities to enjoy during your stay in this stunning resort; from ice skating to nocturnal sledding, here are some of our favourites.
A unique winter activity, what better way to discover Morzine than by making your way through the snowy forests on a snowmobile high above the village at sunset?
With rides from 17:30 until 23:00, sessions usually last an hour with two guides on hand to help. Whilst drivers must be over 18 for the main rides, children can also partake in this adrenaline-fueled activity with electric snowmobiles for 4 to 10-year-olds and the possibility of 13 + year olds being able to ride on the back of snowmobiles driven by an adult.
Taking you through a combination of forests and piste trails, enjoy the tranquillity of nature as you create your own tracks through the snow.
STAY: Chalet 46 - a traditional French farmhouse that's been converted into a luxurious modern retreat with a cinema room & sauna.
A fun activity for the whole family to enjoy, nocturnal sledding is a unique way to spend some extra time on the slopes once the lifts have closed. Taking place at the top of the Pleney, complete with a sledge and headtorch you will be ready to head down the mountain before enjoying a drink at one of the lively bars at the bottom of the slopes.
Taking place most evenings of the winter season, this exhilarating experience is not to be missed.

Both rinks are accompanied by music and lights for some family fun on the ice.
STAY: Chalet La Maison - an exceptional townhouse with a grand open-plan living area, floating wine cellar & private spa.
For a unique experience head to Les Aigles du Léman and taste regional dishes whilst birds of prey fly overhead. If you are interested in falconry, you can take it a step further and embark on a magical 45-minute snowshoe walk with a bird on your arm.
