Many of our clients who have had the taste of the Portes du Soleil from Les Gets have raved about this traditional village with its excellent local ski area. We are delighted to feature Châtel and have had great reports from Equity skiers who have already experienced it.
It’s very much part of the 650km Portes du Soleil circuit, a contender for “biggest in the world”, and therefore with more than enough choice for even the most dedicated piste basher.
Beginners nearly always start the week on the slopes of Super Châtel or Pré-la-Joux where there are plenty of easy, wide nursery slopes served by some slow drags and easy chairs.
Intermediates will enjoy the enormous scope on offer. There are plenty of long blues and wide cruising reds through the trees in the Portes du Soleil area. You’ll also get that priceless sense of journey, as you cross mountain ranges and venture up to Avoriaz and beyond. Advanced skiers have it all - vast mileage, some awesome blacks, plenty of off-piste, plus the added bonus of being able to ski “sans frontières” over to Switzerland!
We can arrange specialist Châtel snowboarding holidays for those interested in this exciting sport.
Châtel has a long history as a traditional mountain village and is a thriving farming community in summer. During the winter months it embraces the ski fraternity and you can expect a warm welcome.
Châtel is a pretty village and a refreshing change from other purpose-built resorts. Nightlife is relaxed, with a pleasing variety of bars and restaurants, many of which serve local specialities. There are plenty of non-ski activities. All-in-all we think it’s a great place!
A typical Savoie village with bags of mountain atmosphere and good facilities including varied après ski.
