Winter Activities

Ask the hotel reception for the services of a qualified mountain guide, HervéLesobre from “AlpiRaquette”, who will expertly show you around the area by snowshoe in the winter or hiking boot in summer. Pay for locally.

In winter, take a tour of the wonderful Portes du Soleil ski area with our ski guide.

Let yourself be guided around the 650km of pistes that cross France and Switzerland on your skis or snowboard. Ask the hotel reception on arrival, pay for locally.

For those that prefer to ski in company…

Social Ski Hosting allows skiers and boarders to join friendly ski groups suited to their ability and to get an insight into the resort’s best ski areas. It can help you avoid the lift queues and seek out the best restaurants for lunch or apres ski afterwards! It is a great way to meet other likeminded skiers and boarders and enjoy the mountain together.

We do not physically accompany guests on the mountain, but our hosts and Reps will be on hand from the moment you arrive to answer any questions you may have, and once in resort they will help you with pre-booked lift passes and fast-track you as best they can through the ski shops.

In the mornings our Winter Hosts will help you connect with other hotel clients for you to ski or board with. They will direct ski groups towards the best ski areas and snow conditions of the day, but please remember that their advice is unqualified and must be treated as such. If you would like a professional mountain guide these can be arranged for an additional supplement in resort.

Our Winter Hosts will arrange lunch stops so that groups can meet up, (if they wish), and socialise together. In the evenings our Hosts will never be far from a chalet or hotel bar or on hand to arrange social drinks and chat about the day’s skiing or boarding.

Please ask for details of our Social Skiing service on arrival at reception.
