| "Avoriaz is the highest resort in the Portes du Soleil, a long-established circuit of a dozen villages that straddles the Swiss border. The published statistics refer to 650km of piste (although how this figure is arrived at is best not examined) served by 207 lifts that are regularly upgraded, to create a well-linked circus covering vast tracts of land bordered by Lac Léman. In reality, the Portes du Soleil consists of a series of naturally separate ski areas. Most are joined by awkward and often confusing mountain links, while a few, such as St-Jean d’Aulps, Val d’Illiez and Abondance, are entirely independent." | ||||||||||||||
