Châtel is a delightful French village which is part of the Portes du Soleil circuit near the top of the Morgins pass, linking France with Switzerland. Châtel is the start of one of Europe’s best ski areas, yet the village has escaped the commercial feel of many resorts and manages to retain the look and feel of a traditional French farming community.
Châtel village is designed to make your holiday as convenient as possible with a good number of shops, restaurants, banks, a traditional market and all other essential facilities. Off slope activities are plentiful as the village is host to a bowling alley, ice skating rink, hot tubs, sauna and various snowshoe trails. The village is a perfect combination of old and new.

Châtel is one of the most northern French Alpine ski resorts and can be easily reached from the UK as it is situated only 900km from Calais. Lifts spread out from the village in both directions and even after a full day of skiing you cannot cover the complete circuit, which consists of 47 runs on varied terrain covering a total distance of 130km, served by 41 lifts. Portes du Soleil is especially suited to intermediate level skiers but can also cater to beginners and advanced skiers, as well as those who want to cover a lot of mileage.
The chalet accommodation is located near to the centre of Châtel and is not far from the resort cable car. Rooms are 4-6 bedded with showers and toilets on each floor. Recreation rooms are available for the group to use and the package includes four meals a day – a snack and drink being provided after a days skiing.
The beautiful scenery, traditional village and superb skiing make this unique resort a must for a ski trip.
