Morzine for Families

On the Pleney area of the mountain, special children’s zones have been created, to give younger skiers an extra sense of adventure as they take to the slopes. The Chemin de ZouZous  is our personal favourite, a 2km educational piste with life-size replicas of wild animals set along the route, providing an entertaining way to learn about local wildlife!

You can also take on the Penguin Boarder, a fun piste for the whole family with banked corners, slalom, a tunnel and jumps. Trust us, once your children take this one on, you’ll find yourself doing it again and again… and again!

The gorgeous outdoor ice rink in the village central square is a firm favourite with families, especially as we’ve all come to appreciate being out in the open-air so much more this year! It’s the perfect place to round off a day on the slopes, providing extra entertainment for energetic youngsters and giving the whole family a unique perspective from which to enjoy the bustling town of Morzine. With plenty of options for a post-skate hot chocolate, or a vin chaud for the grown ups, it’s a wonderful way to spend a winter’s evening.

At the base of the Pleney ski slopes, there is a secure sledging area where children and adults alike can enjoy sledging in safety.

Older children (and adults!) can take on the entire thrilling 4km run down to ramp up the adrenaline, while younger children can also enjoy some sledging fun in the snow on safe, gentle slopes.

At the Morzine Equestrian Centre, children can combine the joys of skiing with a love of ponies by trying pony jöering. The pony pulls the child in an area dedicated to their activity. If accompanied, it is also possible to go for a ride through the forest. For age 4 and upwards. Two possible options: A half day course taking place every afternoon from 2pm – 4.30pm and priced €45. A thirty-minute ride available every afternoon priced €10. Contact: Morzine Equestrian Centre – +33(0)6 32 61 41 98 –
