How's Les Gets/Morzine for snowboarding?
Discussion
So just got back from a week of mountain biking in Morzine which was fantastic!
Im now getting into booking my winter holiday of a week's snowboarding.
Am now thinking of heading back to the Morzine area (to see it in winter), found a nice apartment in the centre of Les Gets which looks ideal.
Will be driving there, over 2 days. In the MG4, so plenty of EV stops! Have Michelin cross climate 4's which are snow rated.
However wondering from anyone who has been:
How busy does it get? will be going 1st week of Feb.
Ive been to St Anton a few times. Whilst I loved the place, it was always soo busy, and the pistes were destroyed by lunch time.
And I hate moguls!
Are the runs generally nice and wide? with minimal flat area's and cat tracks?
I really hate narrow cat tracks, especially when full of skiers!
How easy was it to navigate between the different area's? easy to get from Les Gets to Morzine/Avoriaz side on the lifts?
Was it overall a good place for skiing/boarding?
I assume it generally gets good snow?
Cheers

I've been to Morzine / Montriond / Les Gets a few times in the last few years, but the 'Skiing' Thread will bring you a far more educated answer.

For me, intermediate snowboarder, travelling with Skiers (mixed) I had a fine time.
I doubt you need to worry much about the Cross Climates - the last few times I have been amazed at the height of the snow line above the villages.
