Fine dining in Morzine, imaginative dishes and great presentation
Le Pointe de Nyon combines stunning mountain views with a unique nature park featuring impressive birds of prey, creating a memorable experience alongside its menu of traditional French and Savoyard dishes. The restaurant’s famous Savoyard burger layered with melting Reblochon and a rich red-wine onion compote, is an absolute must-try. Open daily and offering activities for all ages, it’s an ideal destination for a full mountain day out, whether you’re dining, exploring or simply soaking up the scenery.
Every season Hideout Hostel scours Europe for the best pop up restaurants around to bring guests the most fantastic food possible. Eat in the stylish bar or on the sunny terrace.
Located near the Pleney lift and l’Opera nightclub, L’Etale is reputed to be one of Morzine's best restaurants, serving great food at a reasonable price. It's a versatile restaurant for families and groups, although in high season if you’re in a large group it’s definitely worth booking ahead as it does get very busy.
La Grange Restaurant is hidden down a little back road, less than 100 metres from the tourist office in the centre of Morzine, and only 100 metres from the bottom of the Pleney, making it a great alternative to eating up the mountain.
Fabulous gourmet pizzas, freshly made in house with seasonal produce, available to eat in or take-away. There’s a menu of classic pizzas but also some wonderfully imaginative options. L'Improviste which means 'the unexpected' is testament to the more unique options on the menu. In addition to pizza there are excellent pasta and gnocchi dishes, as well as salads, soups and sharing boards of charcuterie, cheeses, burrata or Bresaola.

This gym is fully equipped with all the equipment you need for a great workout. Located at L'Aiglon de Morzine Residence, just five minutes from the centre of resort, it is also open to the public.
The Morzine summer luge winds it's way down the left hand side of the Pleney. Take the La Crusaz chairlift up with your sledge and make your way down the track.
