I was thinking to pass a few days in Portes du Soleil, however, I'm not understanding how easy it is to take advantage of this massive ski resort.
First of all, which village should I stay that is better connected to more ski lifts?
Then, from this village can I simply ski+lifts the entire resort or I would need to drive from one village to the other?
Thanks in advance for your help,

Took the super morzine up to Avoriaz and then took in Chatel, Morgin and a couple of other villages I can't recall right now.
Apart from having to walk across the road in Morgin and a short bus ride in Chatel I think, the rest is all lift linked with loads of varied high terrain.
Going back for another short trip at the beginning of Feb
Chickened out of the Swiss Wall as the entry wasn't looking great for me, though 1 guy did it whilst we had a coffee stop at the top.

Morzine, snow permitting, allows access to Les Gets and Avoriaz. Avoriaz gives access to Morzine, Chatel, & Les Crosets.
Check out a piste map for a better idea of how resorts are / aren't linked.
It's not linked up in the same way as the 3 valleys or Espace Killy though.
