Bij uitstek het skigebied voor lange tochten en veel afwisseling. Chatel ligt in het hart van het gebied, waardoor je makkelijk in Zwitserland en Avoriaz komt. De Apres ski is gemoedelijk en gezellig, niet uitbundig met hollandse hits, maar dat is wat mij betreft een pluspunt. De barretjes, winkels en zeker ook de restaurants zijn van goed niveau. Mooi prijsniveau en van lokaal tot Italiaans etc. Zowel op de pistes (wel reserveren), als in het dorp (ook daar beter reserveren. Wij komen er zeker terug!
