Skiing over the Franco - Swiss border.....

Three go skiing....

The ski area of the Portes du Soleil provides great skiing & boarding for all levels.

Our minibus trip to our favourite ski lift takes about 7 -10 minutes depending on the snow on the roads. From Ardent we take the telecabine up to Les Lindarets - which is a natural bowl from where all the chair lifts radiate out.
For access to Avoriaz there are 2 chairs up, to Linga & Chatel take the new fast Chaux Fleurie or to ski Switzerland take the long Mossettes chair and ski down to Crosets - or if you are a beginner stay at Lindarets and take lessons with ESF or AASS on the nursery slopes there.

We have also the lifts at Super Morzine 5 mins - Morzine 7 mins Les Gets 15 mins & Nyon 10 mins in the minibus.
On our day off we often choose to start our day at The Nyon lift - this too has just had a new chair built and means that no more will I have to use the take off pad that was the drag lift here! One of the best things about Nyon is the restaurant on the plateau - a great menu & views to match from the top of the red run.

MTB TEAM CLOGHER


We recently had the nicest bunch of Irish mountain bikers you are ever likely to come across staying at the chalet for a week of Downhill riding.
Conor, our mtb guide, had a blast riding with these guys, who are all very skilled riders and part of 'Team Clogher' in Eire. Mind you it took them a week to tame the dog!
So thanks to Tom, Alan & Thomas Clogher, Sean & Richard for staying at Entre Deux Eaux...and good luck to Richard in New Zealand.....

You may have seen this photo in our ad in the Daily Mail Where to Ski Guide....




This is the evening view from our chalet of Pointe De Nyon.... plus this is the focal point of the view from our new Hot Tub & south facing sun deck completed last Autumn. It is well worth driving or skiing up here as Pascal's restaurant is one of the best in the area...so book ahead
