A typical week's itinerary could include:

  mountain biking French Alps
   
  Saturday:

Arrival. Discover Morzine. Maybe swim or play volleyball at the Morzine Olympic pool.

 

  Sunday:

Water sports adventure. A two and a half hour white-water descent down the river Dranse, incorporating some exciting grade three/four rapids. You make the descent in an eight-man raft. Superb fun and very much a team effort. In the afternoon we make the short journey to the beautiful lakeside town of Evian where we visit the water park with its Olympic pool, flumes and high diving boards.

 

  Monday:

A full day mountain bike adventure discovering the vast Portes du Soleil with our qualified local guide. Various routes according to ability and experience.

  Tuesday:

A challenging but exciting day's high alpine trekking for serious walkers. This walk lasts approximately nine hours and the steep route takes us high up into les Dents Blanches (White Teeth) to the snow line at an altitude of 2,800m. A long ascent with some scrambling on a ridge with fairly rough conditions underfoot. You are rewarded with some stunning scenery, including on a clear day Mont Blanc

 

  Wednesday:

A free day in Morzine to enjoy some of the sports and activities. Perhaps try a bungee jump, quad biking or a paragliding descent. Alternatively just chill out at the pool or relax over a round of golf.

 

  Thursday:

Multi-choice water sports day. Some options include: white water hydrospeeding (navigate your way down the river with only a large float for support using flippers and a guide's know-how to negotiate danger spots); white water hot-dogging (descend the river with your friends at the mercy of the rapids in a three-man inflatable kayak); wakeboarding (an unforgettable day out on Lake Geneva with a private boat and instructor exclusive to Simply Morzine, similar to water-skiing but on a ‘snowboard’).

 

  Friday:

Multi-choice mountain day. Some options include: canyoning (abseil, wade, slide and jump your way down a gorge and waterfalls using the river as your path); mountainboarding (like grass-karting but on a ‘snowboard’. Gain altitude using the ski lift but remember to use your brakes!); via ferrata (manoeuvre over rock faces fitted with special iron rails), rock climbing, fantasticable (two zip wires, each over 1200m in length, transport you at breathtaking speeds of up to 100km/hour from one mountain peak to another!)

 

 
THE CHOICE IS YOURS!
