Planning your next summer holiday? Morzine is the place to be!
What is Morzine like in the summer?
When the snow melts and the hustle and bustle of the ski season is left behind, the summer months in Morzine are not to be missed. Many people don’t consider the French Alps for a summer family activity holiday, however, the beautiful scenery, scorching temperatures and abundance of things to do make Morzine an ideal summer family holiday location.
Morzine becomes an idyllic and relaxing place, surrounded by vibrant green mountains waiting to be explored. The town is less busy than the winter season, the atmosphere is welcoming and laid back, the days are long and there are plenty of lovely spots for an al fresco drink in the sun.
What is there to do?
Morzine is a giant adventure playground with so many things to do, it would be quicker to list the things you can’t do! There is something on offer for everyone, from infants to grandparents, from sunbathers to adrenaline junkies.
Simply Morzine have an extremely popular and unique activity programme, with a range of activities organised for you. Our programme is tailor made, working with local providers and you can take part in as much or as little as you desire!
Most of the cable cars and chairlifts remain open for pedestrians and mountain bikers, meaning you can explore the mountains on foot or on two wheels. The mountainous terrain provides activities on land, water and air, such as biking, white water rafting and paragliding to name a few.
Is Morzine family friendly?
Morzine could not be more family friendly and the plethora of easily accessible activities in and around Morzine cater for all ages and abilities. For example, younger children can enjoy the the brilliant kids’ swimming pools or pony rides, teenagers can try their hand at more adrenaline-fuelled activities such as mountain biking or canyoning, whilst the older generations or more relaxed adults can entertain themselves with beautiful mountain walks or a trip to a local heritage site.
At Simply Morzine we offer something extra special to entertain all generations and interests, from infants to grandparents. Our properties are child friendly with all the amenities you may need to entertain or look after children, from high chairs and stair gates to table tennis table, hot tub or swimming pool.
