What is the elevation of Avoriaz in feet and metres?
Avoriaz is at 1,826 m, or 5,989 ft, above sea level, read at a point within 200 m of its centre whose height is the median of the area. Within 5 km of the centre the ground runs from 998 m to 2,389 m.
Is Avoriaz at high altitude?
Moderately. At 1,826 m (5,989 ft), Avoriaz is above 1,500 m (4,900 ft), where some visitors feel short of breath, but below the 2,500 m (8,200 ft) from which altitude sickness becomes common.
What is the highest point near Avoriaz?
Within 5 km of the centre, the highest ground is 2,389 m (7,839 ft) at 46.16773, 6.77665. The lowest is 998 m (3,273 ft) at 46.17985, 6.71242.
How is the elevation of Avoriaz measured?
From the Copernicus DEM, a 30 m elevation model made from satellite radar between 2011 and 2015. It includes roofs and trees, so the figure is read at the point whose height is the median of 81 points within 200 m of the centre, rather than at one point that may fall on a building.
