  • Need a change of scenery and a break from your everyday life? Head to the Méribel ski resort, located in the commune of Les Allues, in Savoie! Nestled at 1,450 metres of altitude in the Vanoise massif, it will delight young and old alike with its 64 slopes and 39 lifts. Plus, it's only 1h45 from Lyon and 2h from Geneva, so what are you waiting for?

  • Founded by a Scotsman named Peter Lindsay in search of a new winter leisure destination, the Méribel ski resort sits at the heart of a ski area called "Les 3 Vallées". It's made up of several "districts", including Méribel Village, Méribel Les Hauts and Méribel Mottaret, which rise up to 2,950 metres of altitude! Suffice it to say you'll have snow well into the year :) You can also visit Méribel in summer for lovely walks and hikes.

  • Did you know that the Méribel resort hosted the 1992 Winter Olympics? That means Méribel boasts quality sports facilities, such as a lovely ice rink for winter and a swimming pool for summer! If you'd rather enjoy the fresh mountain air, head to the ski slopes for an outing with family or friends! Indeed, with 25 kilometres of slopes, you'll have plenty to enjoy with a Méribel pass! For accommodation, you can stay in a hotel in Méribel or a chalet. The resort is also labelled Famille Plus Montagne, as well as Top of the French Alps, a label rarely awarded in France and a guarantee of quality!

However, you'll need to wear a mask during all ESF ski school gatherings and between lessons. Indeed, everyone aged 11 and over must wear a mask in these situations. You'll also need to wear your mask on all the ski lifts and in queues, wherever people gather.

The Méribel ski resort also ensures total disinfection of the resort's infrastructure. For example, the ski lifts, their cabins and seats are disinfected every day. Hand sanitizer gel is also provided by the resort at all points of sale and in the stations.

Signage has been put up around the resort to avoid contact and encourage physical distancing. Plexiglass screens have also been installed at ticket counters and points of sale.

The Méribel ski resort has also introduced a more flexible guarantee, in agreement with the other ski resorts of the 3 Vallées. You'll be able to cancel your Méribel ski pass up until the day before the first day of validity. So don't hesitate to book your Méribel ski passes online now — you'll get great prices without worrying about cancellations!

Méribel wants to guarantee your safety and reassure you, skiers, by announcing in particular that:
