The beautiful wooden chalet buildings of Méribel make this one of one of France's most attractive ski resorts and one of the most popular.

Meribel has been awarded the Family Plus label which makes this resort an excellent choice for families as many of the hotels, restaurants and ski areas have kept children in mind. 

With a central location in the Three Valleys, Méribel has excellent access to the largest linked ski area. With 600km of marked pistes you won't be short of areas to explore, and if you do try to make sure you book one of the accommodations with wellness facilities to rejuvenate. There is some amazing skiing in the valley, including the Women's Downhill run and up at the Mont du Vallon and the legendary 'Face' run used for the 1992 Winter Olympics. If speeding down competition-worthy slopes isn't your thing there are also plenty of cruisy blue and red runs throughout the resort. The fun zones in Méribel have been upgraded with the new 'Bump'N'Jump' fun zone with three separate runs with various jumps, boxes and boardercross sections -  accessible via the Legends chairlift and Arpasson ski lift.
