"The worst thing about holidaying in Avoriaz is having to leave"!

There's no end of spectacular walks and climbs around the Portes du Soleil but you'd be hard pressed to find any quite as challenging, fun and special as the Dent d'Oche ridge walk in the Abondance valley.

Imagine for a minute soaring high above the mountains, with only the sound of the wind for company and with spectacular views rolling out for miles and miles beneath you. That’s exactly what you feel when on the Fantasticable Zipwire in Chatel. Admittedly that flying sensation is accompanied with a few other sensations as well...fear, panic, excitement and of course a bit more fear...

Learning to ski or snowboard can change your holiday plans for the better years to come, so we went to find out just how Ski & Snowboard Academy Easy2Ride get you out enjoying the slopes.

If it’s a morning wake-up-call adventure you’re after, then canyoning is the adrenaline pumping, waterfall luging escapade that will have you back in time for lunch.

Going on an evening skidoo ride is one of the most popular things to do on a trip to Avoriaz. 

The love of taking selfies and using Instagram has taken over the world and no more so than when we're on holiday. The Portes du Soleil is the perfect canvas for your photo taking needs and with our help you'll be collecting those 'likes' like you're the next Kim Kardashian.

What more could you want from a weekend of mountain biking in the Alps but sunshine, rain, mud, great people, great trails and a lot of cheese!

Avoriaz is well know for its many cycling and hiking routes, not to mention its mountain biking. I was chatting with hairdresser Beckalina Stewart at the weekend and together we've come up with a list of alternative things you might want to try out in Avoriaz during the summer.

An epic mountain bike ride to report upon today. Last week we made the journey from Chamonix to Morzine across some remote mountain terrain under deep blue skies. It was a classic day out of big adventure riding, almost entirely pedal powered, only the initial lift out of Chamonix and some hiker biking along the route interrupting the biking flow.

Holidays and trips away are about having fun and doing lots of activities, but they’re also about relaxing and escaping from your busy lives for a little while.

You wake up, open your eyes, look out of your window at the beautiful view of the Portes Du Soleil, and disaster strikes. The sky is grey, the rain is hammering down and the wind is howling. Not the hot sunny summer holiday you’d been hoping for. But don’t despair, it certainly doesn’t mean you’ll have to sit inside and do nothing.
