Having Fondue in a very old fashioned fromagerie is great. If you don't like Fondue don't visit, that is pretty much all that is on the menu, but if you like it then this place is hard to beat.

For salads, burgers or a relaxing drink this place is located right next to the ice rink and has a great outside area, good in the summer and the winter. The owners are very nice and we always are welcomed with a smile. In the summer they often have live music.

This place is awesome, if you get a chance pop a day or so beforehand and ask them to cook you a slow cooked lamb shoulder. Also the pastry Chef in 2022 is amazing and you can ask her to make you a fresh Mille Feuille.

A bit of a drive, but worth going to if you want to do a cheaper shop than in Les Gets. It is a much larger store than those in Les Gets or Morzine and seems to be a little bit cheaper. Worth a visit for a big shop prior to staying for a week.

If you like Mountain Biking then Les Gets has some seriously good terrain for this. The downhill courses are some of the best in the world with all sorts of jumps and single tracks for those of all abilities. Many shops in the town rent out bikes and safety equipment and a number of the ski lifts take you up to the higher areas to ride.

The area is often used for finishes of the Tour De France at the ski station of Avoriaz or even in Morzine. Infamous climbs such as the Col de Joux Plan, Col de Joux Vert, Col de Colombiere, Col de Ramaz to name a few are not too far away. If you want to do a flatter ride then head down to the valley and ride along to Samoans, but remember you have a 12km climb back up to Les Gets.

The lake is great for swimming. But you can also hire paddle boards or now they have inflatables during the summer months for kids, plus a little water slide.
Behind the lake is a forest where they have a fantastic go ape set up for many different levels.
