Unlike most resorts linked to major ski areas, Chatel remains relatively unspoiled and retains a very French feel. It is also right on the huge Portes du Soleil circuit, very close to the Swiss b*. It has two separate sectors of slopes, one linked to its French neighbour – high, purpose-built Avoriaz – and the other linked to two resorts in Switzerland: Morgins (which is on the Portes du Soleil circuit) and Torgon (which is not on the circuit).
