2. • Want to really have a holiday, as well as an exciting mountain bike
ride in the slopes and villages around the Portes du Soleil? Then
you need to be able to find something more from your holiday
than just a simple chalet to sleep in, and a guide to the various
mountain biking trails around the villages of Les Gets and Morzine.

3. • It is easy to find Les Gets MTB accommodation in these villages,
particularly during the summer months when the skiing industry
has died down, and the snow has come of off the lower slopes,
revealing a wealth of attractive trails. Even if you do think that you
will be keeping out of the town for most of your stay, it is still a
good idea to learn exactly what else is on offer in the village.

4. Other options during the summer months
• There is plenty to do in Les Gets when you come down from
the trails and spend a little bit of time in the residential area.
There are many sports, including caving and climbing and
trail running, aerial activities including paragliding, and even
golf and tennis, and horse riding.

5. • There is also an attractive 'Musee de la musique mecanique',
which is a museum of automatons, popular during the 18th and
19th century, and a range of mechanical instruments. If you choose
to, you can also travel via coach to one of the larger towns in the
area, or even travel to Switzerland for the shopping.

6. Entertaining
• Even if you don't do anything during the day
apart from spend time on the mountain bike,
you will still need to come down at night and
find somewhere to eat and to drink. There are
several restaurants in the area, and a historic
nightclub dating from 1938.

7. • The nightclub holds theme nights, so make sure you know the
theme of the day before you arrive. If you want to entertain
yourself, then there is plenty to do in the village itself, or in the
neighbouring town of Morzine.

8. Eco-concerns and Les Gets
• If you stay in a Les Gets MTB accommodation
room or chalet for very long, you will become
aware that Les Gets has a very strong
environmental policy, including wood-fired
central heating, geothermal heating, and even
recycling of the lift-pass, soon to become
hands-free in the near future.

9. • Snow preservation is a big concern in the area, and Les Gets
works during the summer to make the slopes more tourist-
friendly, and to preserve snow by grading the slopes. The summer
activity also extends into re-turfing the pistes so that snow has a
more stable foundation.
