Skiing and Winter Sports

Chalet Vinson offers easy access to some of the best ski runs in Europe, with over 50 ski lifts across Les Gets and the surrounding areas. Les Gets itself is perfect for skiiers of all levels, with a range of blue (beginner) red (intermediate) and black (advanced) runs. The Portes du Soleil is the largest linked ski area in the world, providing you with over 650km of piste to conquer.

For snowboarders, Les Gets has a challenging snowboard park complete with banks rollers and jumps. Additionally, throughout the area, there are many off-piste opportunities for the more advanced and adventurous types!

Kids are equally catered for, with a specific area in Les Gets just for children skiing - Le Grande Cry. This has several runs, all themed around trappers and Indians. Weekly treasure hunts are also held within the area. Les Gets also gained the Family Plus Mountain Award, meaning childcare requirements such as creche facilities and dedicated child ski instructors are all provided within the village.

Enjoy Ice Skating? In the winter there is an open air ice rink in the centre of Les Gets.

  • We are all safely back in the UK and I wanted to immediately thank you for presenting us with a wonderful residence for our family and friends Les Gets holiday. The chalet could not have been better suited to us and the views, coupled with the facilities , made it a particularly enjoyable experience for us all. Everyone agreed it was the best skiing holiday yet.

  • We were a group of 11 adults with 2 infants under 2years old. The space available both layout and size was perfect for us, with amazing views over the villages. Inside was super clean, with high end appliances in the kitchen and more than enough cutlery etc so this was never an issue. A couple of nights we cooked for everyone and had no limitations. Sleeping spaces are lovely and spacious. Pool table was perfect for young kids, hot tub was a great addition, living room is lovely. Plenty of space on the driveway for cars. The buses are free though and quite often. they run early til 7.30pm. The hosts respond really quickly for both questions about the accommodation and local tips such as ski lessons.
