Home to arguably the most stunning views in the Portes du Soleil

Home to arguably the most stunning views in the Portes du Soleil, you’ll ski with Lake Geneva’s blue below you and turn a corner to find yourself confronted with the Mont Blanc chain and the 4000m (13,123ft) peaks of the valley. It’s relatively small with 35km of local slopes, of course, that’s irrelevant with the quick and easy links to the rest of the Portes du Soleil. And with the altitude, Torgon is pretty snowsure and offers a quieter option for skiers during the peak holiday. Great off-piste below the Tronchey lift.
