Méribel is at the centre of the Trois Vallees Ski and Snowboard
area. This means there is excellent access to not only Méribel's
own extensive skiing, but also to the neighbouring valleys of Courchevel,
Val Thorens/Les Menuires and Les Orelles.
Méribel's own skiing is fabulous. Well groomed pistes that
descend from the ridges at around 2500 metres and drop 1000 metres
down into Méribel itself offer a wide variety of terrain. From
the off-piste around Mont Vallon to the famous Bartavelle bumps, Méribel
has it all.
At night Méribel's nightlife comes alive. With one of the
biggest British saisonnaire contingencies, the cafes, bars and clubs
are always bursting with people. Sample some fantastic apres ski
at the Rond Point. With great bands and a crazy atmosphere you'll
be crowd surfing in no time. Méribel also has its own Dicks
Tea Bar, famous throughout the Alps as the place to go for a big
night out.
We know that one of the most important parts of creating a successful
GAP course is the accommodation and food. If you have a comfortable
bed and a good meal to go home to then this enables you to concentrate
on your riding. Therefore, we have arranged catered chalet accommodation
on our GAP course.
The Lounge
The chalet has a cosy living room where you can kick your boots
off and relax. The lounge is equipped with a TV, DVD and CD player.
All off-snow lectures will take place in the comfort of your chalet.
