About Meribel Ski Resort

Meribel, at 1450m, is situated in the heart of the 3 Valleys so access to all areas couldn’t be easier. Although Meribel as a resort is large in size, the construction is that of a traditional alpine village, with many picturesque freestanding chalets.

Meribel is known as the après-ski resort of the 3 Valleys (for good reason!) with plenty of fantastic nightlife. Favourites are Dicks T-bar, Le Pub & Jack’s Bar. The skiing from Meribel caters for mixed skiing abilities and the range of accommodation suits anyone from individuals up to large groups - it really is an excellent all round resort.

Mottaret is located just above the main town of Meribel Centre (about 6 km away by car). At 1750m, it is an excellent location for the keen skiers wanting great ski access, who don’t mind being a short distance from the hub of Meribel town centre which is within easy reach if the night requires. Meribel Village is just down the valley from Meribel Centre (about 5 mins by car).

The Three Valleys is home to around 200 ski lifts and 600kms of ski runs, providing skiable terrain for all ability of skiers and boarders. Meribel is right in the middle of this massive ski area offering something for everyone both on and off the mountains. For any non-skiers there are many alternative activities. We are confident you’ll have a great stay!
