I've not been to Morzine, but heard a lot of people slagging it off this year
This year was the best it's been in the past 5 years. I did three weeks out there this year and it was perfect. Les Gets is a bit tired and blown out but everything else was fantastic.
I'm booked up for next year already, last two weeks in July. Easily my favourite place in the world. Do it.
If I could have my way, I'd be dumped at the top of mont jovet, every day, for the foreseeable future, love the Les Arcs region, not particularly Dh but views and trails to die for!
Have to be helied up though, the hike a bike to the top is ****ing exposed and scary!
Dont forget to give yourself a rest day every 3/4 days, you will be knackered and to make the most of 2 weeks you are going to need 2/3 rest days - take your swimmers for the pool, go canyoning, etc loads of road riding around there as well
This is just up the road from [s]Morzine[/s] Chalet Montana in Montriond.
FTFY 😉
.This is just [s]up[/s] down the road from [s]Morzine[/s] Les Lindarets and a good place to wash off the goat piss
FTFY 😕
Not sure whether your dates are fixed in stone yet, but the TDF has a stage finish in Morzine July 23.

That's a no-brainer then. We rode up Col de la Ramaz in 2003 to watch the tour come up and over. Unforgettable experience. And the ride back down was quite a giggle too. Last tip: definitely take a spare hanger - bike hire will blow your budget (and they're are not necessarily that great either).
We are out in Morzine from the Sat 9th July for a week and have two spaces available in one of our chalets. We book two chalets from riders refuge each year costing £138 p/p. Their is a real variation of people going ranging from 15 to 53,as the abaility level is so varied we always break off into smaller groups or just go and do our own thing. If your interested just drop me an email
We rented a chalet up past the lake (just down the hill from Lindarets). Dirt cheap and we had the whole place that could sleep 7, including hot tub for a couple of hundred euros for 3 days. Of course it was less cheap considering we only had 3 in it but never mind.
All, thank you for all your help. We have booked an appartment in Morzine for a fortnight in start of July. My daughter and i will be uplifting til we drop. We both have DH bikes and both have 150mm enduro style bikes. Considering how spanked i am after a day at Antur Stiniog, i was maybe thinking that the smaller bikes may be useful so we dont go downhill bonkers and tire ourselves out. My daughter def prefers DH to any pedalling though.
My OH is going and isnt really into MTB. She has a carbon road bike anda Spec TriCross. Are there any trails and tracks suitable for the CX style bike? So she can get out and explore whilst we use the uplifts? Any other activities that can be recommended for our rest days?
Thanks
