A Ski Trip with a Cheese Problem!

Join us for an amazing ski/snowboard and food themed trip in the French and Swiss Alps. Haute Savoie is my favorite place to ski because of the beautiful unspoiled mountain views, fresh powder, excellent food, and French touch. We will ski and ride the “Portes du Soleil”, a collection of 12 connected ski resorts encompassing more than 600 kilometers of slopes in France and Switzerland’s Rhône-Alps region (making it the second largest in the world) that allow for giant loops without ever skiing the same slope twice. The Portes du Soleil benefit from a microclimate between Lake Geneva and Mont Blanc that generates substantial amounts of snow. Avoriaz  is often the resort in France to receive the most snow, as the Portes du Soleil resorts are the first to accumulate snow from storms coming from both the North and the West. In addition to the large resorts of Avoriaz, Chatel, and Morzine, you can discover small charming locals’ resorts with excellent restaurants only accessible by ski.
