Accommodation and Facilities for Chalet l'Amaryllis in La Chapelle d'Abondance, Portes du Soleil area, France

Skiing

La Chapelle d'Abondance, like much of the Alps is currently enjoying reasonable skiing conditions. Early season snow is being kept in good condition as a result of low temperatures. The slopes directly across from the chalet are in superb condition & there is good access to the rest of the Portes du Soleil network. If you purchase a Porte du Soleil ski pass there are free buses throughout the valley with lnks to other resorts including Super Chatel, Linga, Avoriaz etc. A car is useful for visits to the larger supermarkets. Transfers to/from Geneva airport can be arranged.

Mountain breaks

There are walks to suit every level of ability from a gentle stroll to some serious challenges on the surrounding peaks. River rafting, hang gliding and the exhilarating Fantasticable in Chatel are all options for anyone wanting a high adrenaline holiday. Mountain bikes are readily available for hire and depending upon the season there is the option to take the bike to the higher levels in the cable car/lifts and explore the higher parts of the mountain ranges on well sign-posted tracks. For children the local tourist board offers visits to farms and early morning wildlife watching with a local guide.

Skiing Information:

Regular ski buses are available & can take you to the nearest ski stations. If you have a Porte du Soleil pass the buses are free, otherwise journeys cost just a few Euro. The bus system works well & can be more convenient than driving/parking - particularly if you want the freedom to ski from one resort to another. Up to date details available from the Tourism office in Chapelle d'Abondance. As an indication: hourly buses from the church (couple of minutes walk from the chalet) to Chatel station from where you can join the Super Chatel cable car or catch one of the frequent buses to Linga; frequent buses to La Panthiaz cable car for La Chapelle & Torgon in Switzerland - if you have the energy you can also use this route to ski your way into Chatel!

Golf Information:

We have discovered the following and whilst there is no golf course in the Abondance Valley the following clubs are definitely worth considering: Evian Masters Golf Cub - 40 minutes drive. A championship course with great views of Lake Geneva, views and greens are magnificent. Reduced green fees (50%) after 4pm (except August). Villars Golf Club Switzerland : a great high altitude course with views of Mont Blanc on a clear day. An initially daunting course with some great drives up and down the mountain that will memorable for anyone who plays. Lovely terrace cafe and restaurant for after a round, or where a non-playing visitor could spend a few hours reading surrounded by breathtaking scenery. About an hour from La Chapelle and half-price on Mondays. Montreaux Switzerland : a parkland course located in Aigle about 40 minutes drive. Parkland course with very friendly staff who make visitors welcome.
