Les Gets - Slope
Ski lifts
Ski runs
Les Gets' ski season usually lasts from early December to mid-April. The resort has a good snowfall record, north-facing slopes and quite extensive snow-making cover.
There's skiing on several mountains surrounding the resort, with most runs carved through the forest. In most cases skiers of all ability levels can spend much of the day skiing together because the areas have been designed to have a selection of easy, moderate and more advanced runs descending from the top of each lift and meeting again at the base.
The main Chavannes lifts give skiers and boarders access to the ski slopes of Nyon and Le Pleney and other slopes shared with neighbouring Morzine. It's a very pretty ski area with pine forests dissected by runs for all standards. It's also the direct route on skis into the Portes du Soleil region and beyond.
Across the valley, Mont Chery stands unlinked as Les Gets' own ski area. The gondola here accesses intermediate- and advanced-level terrain above the treeline, from which there are great views of Mont Blanc. The long Gazelle black or Chamois red runs take you back down to the village.
