Chatel
Overview
A valley village in the Portes du Soleil - very traditional and really quite pretty, although somewhat spread out. It's main advantage is that it is a part of the PDS ski circuit.
Offslope/apres ski
Good atmosphere centred around a number of bars and clubs in the town. Not a lot to do for non skiers.

An alternative and less expensive base for exploring the enormous Portes du Soleil ski area.
