Coworking on skis: where there's a will, there's a way!

The concept of ski coworking, often referred to as "mountain coworking" or "ski chalet coworking", is becoming increasingly popular. The idea is to combine remote working with a mountain experience, alone or with family, enabling professionals to enjoy nature while remaining productive. Some resorts have understood the benefits that coworking spaces can offer their residents and holidaymakers, and are increasingly banking on them to attract connected visitors. In addition to providing a reliable Internet connection, not always easy from a chalet, these spaces offer a quiet bubble in which to relax and telework in complete serenity.

3 - Buro Morzine (74): the Haute Savoie is waiting for you

La Station is about 80 kilometers from Geneva, Switzerland, making it easily accessible to international visitors. With more than 600 kilometers of slopes, skiers of all levels, from beginners to experts, will find courses adapted to their skills... and also coworking spaces!
