6 - Just travel !

Travel back in time through Méribel’s history. Le Circuit des Villages walking trail or the Fanfoué village fête will transport you back through the centuries for a taste of our ancestors’ daily life: see what they wore and ate and how they lived. As will the traditional Route des Tommes and Route des Glaces (traditional practices of transporting cheese and ice through the mountains).

7 - Letting go...

In summer in the mountains, you can immerse yourself in Nature: far from the hubbub of the city, the mountains soothe all your five senses with sounds, scents and views that encourage you to completely let go …

As well as mountains, Méribel offers you well-being activities: Yoga on the banks of Lake Tuéda, hikes on the peaks, zero-waste picnics, saunas and Jacuzzis or body treatments…

8 - Be entertained

Dozens of sporting and cultural events are organised throughout the summer season with theme fortnights dedicated to well-being, art, aeronautics and outdoor sports.

9 - Finally spend time together...

Time with your children, for example! Méribel is the ideal place for family summer holidays. In fact, the resort has been awarded Family Plus status in recognition of its special family services and facilities. One example is Sportkids Méribel which offers mountain biking, kayaking, via ferrata, climbing, paintballing and grass scooters etc.

Plus there are children’s organised trips to discover the local flora and fauna or a night’s getaway in a mountain refuge.

10 - Appreciate

Appreciate the simple things in life, whether it’s a picnic on the summit, an excellent gastronomic meal with panoramic views over Méribel’s mountains or welcoming, elegant and authentic accommodation. Holidays in the mountains are also a chance to do very little!
