| Dear ,
Spanning three forest-laden valleys and innumerable peaks within the breathtaking Parc National de la Vanoise, the Three Valleys is top of many skiers’ bucket lists for good reason.
Comprising the prestigious resorts of Méribel, Courchevel, La Tania and Val Thorens along with a handful of smaller villages linked by a vast network of pistes, it’s also a superb luxury skiing destination.
Discover our top five reasons to ski in the Three Valleys this winter.
1) World class skiing – With over 600km of pistes, the Three Valleys is the largest linked ski area in the world and offers an impressive variety of terrain with something for every level of skier. It’s also some of the highest skiing to be found anywhere and boasts an enviable snow record. Whether you seek a white Christmas or spring snow, you’ll find plenty to ski in the Three Valleys.
2) Fabulous dining – With no less than ten Michelin starred establishments (six in Courchevel alone), the Three Valleys is truly a culinary destination. Aside from the many highly regarded fine dining establishments, the restaurant scene includes everything from authentic Savoyard specialities to world cuisine, so you certainly won’t have a shortage of excellent options for lunches.
3) A ski area that’s constantly evolving – No two winters in the Three Valleys are the same, with constant improvements to the modern, efficient lift system and a fresh calendar of events. This winter will see the brand-new Saulire gondola transport its first passengers from Courchevel 1850 to the dizzying heights of La Saulire above. There’s also a new beginners’ area on the Chaudanne in the heart of Méribel. Courchevel will play host to two unmissable sporting events: the Ski Mountaineering World Cup and the night slalom from the Women’s World Cup.
4) Varied non-skiing activities – Whether you have non-skiers in your group or are looking for a little post-ski entertainment, the Three Valleys have a wide range of activities on offer. From night-time tobogganing and scenic flights to horse-drawn sleigh rides and unwinding at the spa, you’ll have plenty to keep you occupied beyond the slopes.
5) Snow reliability – 85% of the ski slopes are above 1800m altitude, ensuring reliable snow cover from early December to late April and even early May. Val Thorens is the highest resort in Europe, sitting at an altitude of 2,300 meters, whilst Courchevel and Méribel also have high-altitude areas, with Courchevel reaching up to 2,738 meters and Méribel up to 2,952 meters.
