Forecast today: Mainly fair
From the main gondola out of the village, you can choose to either drop towards Courchevel via Chenus or over the Col de la Loze towards Méribel. Of course the whole Three Valleys has terrain for everyone, but the local La Tania slopes are good for learning, being fairly gentle and nicely tree-lined, which definitely helps in bad weather. Snow reliability has improved thanks to snowmaking, but beware La Tania is one of the lowest bases in the region.
The resort was built for the 1992 Winter Olympics, but although it is purpose- built French resort its wood-clad buildings sit comfortably in a pretty woodland setting and it definitely is nowhere near as bleak looking as some other resorts in the area. Off the slopes, there’s not a huge amount to do – you’ll need to head further up to the larger resorts for the swimming pools, ice rinks, toboggan tracks and cross country trails.

A promising week is in store for the French Alps, as the freezing line prepares to take a long walk off a short pier and plummet to finish off the week, as unsettled weather moves in at the same time. Snowfall already falling over the Alps will therefore being to reach lower slopes over the course of Thursday.
Friday will dawn cold as the freezing line hits 500m, and whilst it will recover over the course of the day it won’t climb too far above 1,500m. Snow will begin with flurries throughout the afternoon, then will continue for much of this forecast period. Around half-a-foot will fall over each of Saturday, Sunday and Monday, before the taps open on Tuesday and around 2ft of snowfall could be expected across higher ground – the freezing line will climb to 2,000m thereby limiting this snowfall across lower slopes, before falling again as Tuesday draws to a close.
This snow will fall on a persistent weak layer avalanche problem that has already caused havoc across the French Alps in previous weeks; expect the avalanche risk to climb considerably over this period. Check your local avalanche forecast and plan off piste and backcountry travel carefully.
