The Three Valleys

Occupying an enviable position in the vast Three Valleys area, the purpose built resort of Les Menuires is situated just down the valley from Val Thorens. The opportunities for all levels and ages of skier are immense whether you're a complete novice or an expert. Its selection of amenities, bars and restaurants are conveniently located and the prices more modest than its other 3 valleys neighbours.

Les Menuires offers easy access to the other major 3 Valleys resorts of Meribel, Courcheval and Val Thorens making it possible to cover as much of the 600km of piste as you can handle. Huge investment in a state-of-the-art lift system along with the convenience of a 'hands free' lift pass also means access around the slopes is fast and efficient. Located at an altitude of 1850m in the Vanoise Massif, Savoie, Les Menuires practically guarantees fantastic snow conditions. It is often sunny too thanks to a network of mainly east and west facing slopes.

The resort of Les Menuires is a family resort adhering to the ''Petit Montagnards'' charter, with a mini-club, leisure centre for 3-6 year olds, Lugeland and Chateau Toboggan. It is possible to ski around the resort and there is lively apres-ski  in the area. Other activities include a sports and water complex, aquaclub area, snow mobiling, sledging and paragliding.
