Portes Du Soleil Piste Information
Piste Information
The ski area at Portes du Soleil on the western edge of the Alps covers 650kms, and links two countries – France and Switzerland. Portes du Soleil also has a snowfall record to rival any of the top skiing regions in Europe, America and Canada. With the majority of the skiing taking place above 1600m, that makes the efficient lift and bus system at Portes Du Soleil a boon. There is something for all levels of skiers (beginners, intermediates and advanced), and for snowboarders too.
