Is Culture and History More Your Thing?

There are a choice of events that will help you lap up the local culture and history.

Guided Tours and Demonstrations

You can take a tour of Old Morzine and learn about the town’s history or visit a slate mine.

My favourite is to visit the Fromargarie and see the local cheese being made. The demonstrations are only made on Wednesday and Thursday mornings so, if you want to go, you’ll have to plan for it.

Alternatively, you can also visit the dairy farmer in his cow shed – he’s there at 6pm each evening in the winter and is always happy to see visitors. For details visit l'Alpage on Route de la Plagne.

Music Recitals

There are often music recitals held in the ancient church in the old village of Morzine. Details of events can be found posted up around the village and from the Office du Tourisme.
