Morgins gondola lift (Christmas 2023)
After 40 years of loyal service, the Foilleuse chairlift has bowed out to make way for the future, represented by a semi-autonomous gondola lift!
From the centre of Morgins village to the summit of La Foilleuse, let yourself be transported by 10-seater gondolas designed to accommodate the whole family, from toddlers to wheelchairs.
Enjoy the comfort of this new facility all year round!
Modification of the Mossettes piste (winter 23-24)
As a ski lift company, Portes du Soleil Suisse SA puts the comfort and safety of its customers first. That’s why the slopes are constantly being redesigned, year after year.
The Mossettes slope in the Crosets sector has therefore had its slope softened. As a result of the changes made, the difficulty level has been raised from red to blue, with a reduced slope and a wider piste. Access to Champoussin and Morgins from Les Mossettes has been improved and made easier.
Mountain reservoir
Lac de Léchereuse
In order to guarantee the snow from the opening until the end of the season, Télé Champéry-Crosets Portes du Soleil SA has built a hillside reservoir. This means a complete restructuring of the technical snowmaking network.
Thanks to this reservoir, and in order to respect the ecological balance, the water withdrawal will not increase but the production time will decrease because the necessary stock will be available at all times!
