The Location
Châtel (Portes du
Soleil), France (1100m to 2200m)
An old Savoyard village with a long farming tradition and today a
strong tourism infrastructure. Well placed on the Portes du Soleil circuit,
arguably the world's biggest lift-linked ski area offering 650km of piste.
Skiing in Châtel
Châtel's
skiing effectively breaks in to two huge sectors of the Portes du Soleil
circuit, with the Linga gondola at one end of town heading off towards Avoriaz,
and on the other from Super Châtel side gondola going towards the Swiss resort
of Torgon. In addition, there are individual and unlinked drag lifts dotted
around the valley floor, serving very easy or easy runs and used for beginners.
The main beginner area is, however, at the top of the gondola above Super Châtel where a snowy open bowl contains a further dozen or so short drags radiating out in all directions and serving generally easy or very easy terrain.
Indeed, with so many lifts dotted around, and Châtel's two gondolas linking in to two sections of the vast Portes du Soleil, it's a bit difficult to work out exactly where the extensive skiing the village claims as it own comes to an end and the next resort's territory begins. Rather than trying to work that out, most
skiers and 'boarders will be admiring the picturesque scenery for which the area is renowned, with thickly forested slopes above the valley floor giving way to open snow fields and then the rocky pinnacles above and beyond.
Intermediates will enjoy Châtel's skiing and the vast range of opportunities in the Portes du Soleil beyond. For advanced skiers the Linga sector is the place to go initially where you'll find challenging runs beneath the gondola.
There
are now six ski schools operating in the resort, including some small
specialist snowboard and off-piste operations which will be able to locate more
advanced terrain away from the crowds.
