La Tania is a good-value, family-friendly base from which to explore the slopes of its swanky neighbors, Courchevel and Meribel, and the wider Three Valleys area.
The resort was built for the 1992 Winter Olympics, and at 1350m is about the lowest purpose-built French resort you'll find; its wood-clad buildings sit comfortably in a pretty woodland setting - quite a contrast to the bleakness of many French ski stations.
Despite being set further down, it's only two lifts in either direction to reach the neighboring resorts and the heart of the Three Valleys, with access to 600km of pistes and 180 lifts.
La Tania is set just off the minor road linking Le Praz to Meribel. Free buses go to Courchevel and there's a service to Meribel during the French school holidays.
