Montriond is...

In winter

a central location

in the heart of the Portes du Soleil

Montriond, a sports resort in the heart of the Portes du Soleil, enjoys direct access to the ski areas of Avoriaz 1800, Châtel and Les Crosets (in Switzerland). Whizz down the slopes of the Avoriaz 1800 ski area and discover the famous village of Les Lindarets, a charming hamlet of old chalets buried under the snow, for a quick gourmet break on the slopes! In the heart of the Lindarets forest, ‘The Stash’ snowpark is a 100% natural and safe snow sports area for the whole family to enjoy, with powder snow and wooden features hidden throughout the course.

Montriond is also home to one of the longest runs in the Portes du Soleil: the Abricotine winds its way down for nearly 8 km from the ridges marking the border with Switzerland to the foot of the Ardent cable car.
Montriond is also known for its lake situated below the village; do pop down for a stroll: even when covered in snow, it remains accessible for a short walk amidst a far-northern atmosphere, between the frozen lake and the spruce forests.

In summer

the village

of Les Chèvres

Montriond is an ideal holiday destination. With its lake, waterfalls and walking trails, there are some magnificent sights to admire. Lake Montriond offers easy walks and water sports to enjoy in a peaceful setting. A little further up lies the village of Les Lindarets: a must-visit for families coming to discover a genuine hamlet with its wooden chalets and mountain pastures. A large goat population has earned this hamlet the nickname ‘the village of goats’. Just like the holidaymakers, they’ve come here to spend a summer of leisurely strolls. Children will be delighted to feed these free-roaming goats, which are both greedy and curious. An ideal stop for a bite to eat, it’s also the starting point for numerous hikes.

From Les Lindarets, mountain bikers can hop on their bikes to explore the various trails and take the chairlifts to the resorts within the Portes du Soleil ski area. For walkers, numerous hiking trails criss-cross the mountains and lead to magnificent viewpoints such as the Brochaux waterfall or the Pointe des Mossettes.
