Méribel WINTER GUIDE

Méribel, nestled in the picturesque French Alps, is not just a winter wonderland. When the snow melts, the charming resort transforms into a vibrant summer destination, offering a plethora of outdoor activities, exquisite dining options, and exciting events. Whether you’re a thrill-seeker, a nature enthusiast, or a food lover, Méribel has something to offer for everyone. Read on to discover the best of Méribel’s summer season!

Skiing & Snowboarding

At 600km of skiable pistes, the 3 Valleys is the world’s largest ski area. Made up of seven resorts, with Méribel at its centre. Our hotel is located across the road from the main lift hub providing easy access to a network of 160 ski lifts. A popular ski area and for good reason, there is something for everyone – from beginners to seasoned experts alike. With 300km of marked runs and 62,000 metres of cumulative vertical drop, cruisey blues to gnarly blacks, and epic backcountry tours, there’s always fun or a challenge to be found. 

Snow Parks

Know your “indys” from your “mutes”, or your “rodeos” from your “corks”? Then Meribel’s world-class snow park is for you! Accessed via the Plattieres gondola from Méribel-Mottaret, the Méribel snow park is home to expertly shaped kickers, a variety of boxes and rails as well as a half pipe. A progressive snow park where park riders of all abilities will feel comfortable with laying down their favourite tricks or trying to nail that new learn.

Sledging

Fancy some fun for the family? The Black Forest Mission luge is guaranteed to bring a smile to your face. Glide through the Arbin Forest on a 3.4km sledge track, down a 470m descent, and zip around 27 corners. A mystical experience for all kids big and small, you might even spot some elves or goblins. Accessed via Chaudanne, across the road from Les Grangettes Hotel. 

Olympic Centre

Open between December and April, the Parc Olympique de Méribel offers a 25m swimming pool with a water slide, paddling pool, and gym facilities. Themed evenings and activities are held regularly as well as swimming lessons. Check the tourist office website for more details.  

Horse Riding and Reindeer Sleigh

Slow down and make your winter holiday magical with a reindeer or pony sleigh ride. La Ranch Nordique is a working equestrian centre open all year round. In addition to sleigh rides, other activities are offered for the whole family including horse rides and ski-joëring. If you are a first-timer or expert, a range of lessons and excursions are available.

Ice-Skating

A winter holiday isn’t complete without sliding on ice, so you may as well make sure it’s in an ice rink! The Méribel Ice Skating rink can be found in the Parc Olympique de Méribel, opposite Les Grangettes Hotel. Open to the public during winter, equipment and lessons are available. You might even catch the Bouquetins, our local ice-hockey team, at demonstration matches every Tuesday.
