Why spend Christmas in Méribel this year?
At Christmas, Méribel offers the perfect setting for combining a skiing holiday with the festive season. Snow-covered slopes run alongside festively decorated chalets. There’s a constant stream of entertainment in the resort, and the days stretch on as you enjoy a hot chocolate or a Savoyard meal.
This time of year is also a chance to enjoy the mountains as a family. Young and old alike can make the most of the ski area, as well as a wide range of off-piste activities.
A family-friendly resort in the heart of the 3 Vallées
The resort of Méribel is situated in the heart of the 3 Vallées. This central location makes it an ideal base from which to explore the ski area.
Méribel comprises several neighbourhoods and villages:
Méribel Centre is home to a wide range of shops, restaurants and amenities.
Further up, Méribel-Mottaret offers direct access to the slopes.
Méribel Village also charms visitors with its mountain village atmosphere.
This layout makes family holidays easier. Everyone can plan their own itinerary according to their ability and preferences. In the morning, head for the slopes. The afternoon can be spent enjoying an activity or taking a break somewhere warm. Then, as night falls, the Christmas entertainment takes over.
A warm and festive atmosphere in the mountains
In December, the mountains take on a whole new look. The peaks are blanketed in snow. The chalets are lit up. The streets and snow-covered slopes come alive with Christmas celebrations.
In Méribel, this atmosphere can be felt throughout the resort. Decorations, shows and entertainment add to the enjoyment of a day’s skiing. The mountain setting also lends a special touch to the festive season. After a day in the fresh air, you can return to your chalet, holiday home or hotel. It’s time to share a meal, warm up and enjoy the evening.
Christmas in Méribel offers a different pace of life – one of holidays, the mountains and moments shared with loved ones.
