Méribel

Méribel is a pretty luxury mountain ski resort nestled in the Tarentaise area of the northern French Alps with stunning luxury ski chalets. At the heart of the Three Valleys a ski area that boasts to be the largest in the world with over 600kms of pistes. Méribel really does have something for everyone, a great family resort, fun nightlife for those that like to party and just about all levels of skiers are catered for. For the bad weather days there is a 25m swimming pool, a gym, an ice rink, a cinema and more. Beginner's will find that Méribel is a great place to learn to ski, with a gentle nursury slope through the forest reserved especially for first timers (no maniacs speeding past), then you can progress onto the green slopes of the altiport. There are plenty of blues and easy reds for the intermediate skier - from the nervous to the more competant. As for advanced skiers with the 600km of runs in the Three Valleys there is plenty to keep you busy, from the beautiful Mont Vallon at the end of the Méribel valley to the far side of Val Thorens and down into the fourth valley of Orelle numerous black runs some with bumps some without or there are the "couloirs" accessible from the Saulire lift on the Courchevel side. 

Méribel has plenty of snowmachines, allowing them to add to the snow cover if necessary, and "piste bashers" to groom the pistes overnight. The Méribel valley is in the centre of all the action. At the head of the Méribel valley you'll find Mont Du Vallon, at a height of 2,952m, the views are stunning and the ski down even more so. The valley contains the DC and Moon Park, two of the best snowparks in Europe. With a beginner jump line, to a superpipe, and everything in between. We offer a great selection of luxury ski chalets in Méribel with indoor swimming pools and private spa facilities, catered and self-catered. Not all are published.
