Quiet conditions on the mountain doesn’t mean you’ll be experiencing a quiet night in town. As January falls outside of the school holidays, there are fewer families and more adult groups.

As well as the many bars and restaurants to take advantage of when you ski in Morzine in January, there are also a variety of events that just might tickle your fancy. If you like fireworks then be sure to visit the bottom of the Pleney slope every Tuesday at around 18:00.
