At 1,670 metres (5,480 ft), Les Crosets is the resort of highest altitude among those on the Swiss side of the Portes du Soleil. It is, however, one of the smallest as well. It is easily reached by skis from Chatel and Avoriaz. It has a microclimate and allows splendid views of the Dents Du Midi. The famous Swiss wall (an orange mogul run) and Off Piste are accessible from Les Crosets.
