Méribel Ski Resort
Méribel has long been a British and Ski Club favourite, and its location at the very heart of the vast Three Valleys ski area is only one of the reasons why.
The slopes of Méribel have something for everyone. From sunny, gentle nursery slopes to mile after mile of intermediate cruising and to some of the Three Valleys finest off piste, there is great variety – not to mention the remainder of the 600km of linked runs that make up the Three Valleys. Most won’t even need to explore the other valleys, but if you’re a keen intermediate upwards then it will add another dimension to your holiday this winter.
Méribel is the ideal resort for a chalet holiday, with a huge choice of tour operators calling this resort home. Unlike many other purpose-built resorts, it has been tastefully designed, with wood-clad buildings the norm and not the exception. There is a lively après scene – Le Rond Point and the Folie Douce are the hotspots – but this is also a good resort for families.
The best way to experience this fantastic resort is with a Ski Club Freshtracks holiday. This season we have five departures of the ever-popular Méribel All Mountain Instruction holiday, designed for those really looking to up their game both on and off piste.
If you’ve already booked your trip then make sure you add in some Instructor-led Guiding sessions with the excellent New Generation ski school – on offer this season between 22nd December and 13th April.
There’s also the option to join the popular Ski Club Facebook Group for Méribel, an active group of over 100 like-minded skiers and boarders.
