Event Previews & Reviews from Morzine

The Portes du Soleil is gearing up for a major summer of biking but following closely behind it is a quiet buzz around the region's trail running.

February was dominated by the Alpine Skiing World Championships, held every second year, which kicked off in St Moritz on 6th February. Over 13 days, 589 athletes from 76 countries competed in eleven competitions in front of 165,000 spectators.

Whether you're here to cycle or just to enjoy some of the incredible scenery and landscapes of the Portes du Soleil, there are events throughout the summer to make your stay in this magical place even more special. From music to sport, bikes to cars, Lady Gaga to Toto, there's something for everyone, and 2015 promises to be pretty amazing!
