 (2 votes, 2 reviews)
Les Portes du Soleil is a large region of the Alps (Chablais Alps) encompassing thirteen resorts between Mont Blanc in France and Lake Geneva in Switzerland, popular for skiing, snowboarding
and other winter sports. The region offers 650 km of marked runs and
about 230 lifts in total, spread over 14 valleys and about 400 square

Snow dumps over the Portes du Soleil are common and snowmaking
ensure that slopes are kept healthy during warmer periods. However due
to its low altitude it is not known for its guaranteed snow.
