Super-Châtel

Super-Châtel is a ski resort and paragliding launch site located in the Portes du Soleil region spanning the French-Swiss border. The terrain includes runs of varying difficulty levels, modern lift systems connecting to neighboring areas, and sits at roughly 1,600 meters in elevation.

The area grew into a key part of the integrated Portes du Soleil ski region, connecting French and Swiss mountain slopes through a linked lift system. This cross-border arrangement continues to shape its role as a mountain sports destination today.

The place reflects the mountain heritage of the Portes du Soleil region, where winter sports culture and local Alpine traditions shape daily activities and the built environment. Visitors see this blend when exploring the village and its connection to the surrounding landscape.

Access to the slopes and lift system uses a single integrated pass that covers this and neighboring ski areas. Visitors should prepare for changing weather at altitude and bring warm clothing along with sun protection.

The place operates year-round as a mountain destination, with summer months attracting paragliders who take advantage of thermal conditions and open airspace. This dual-season function sets it apart from resorts focused solely on winter sports.
