Looking for a Nordic break in the heart of the 3 Valleys? Cross-country ski rental in Meribel is the ideal way to discover the valley at a gentle pace, between fir forests and wide clearings. Groomed trails wind around the Altiport and Lac de Tueda in Méribel-Mottaret, with loops for all levels, from easy alternating steps to more challenging skating routes.

Mornings are often the best time to slide: the snow is firm and the tracks freshly groomed, especially after a snowfall. In mid-winter (January-February), bring warm layers and a neck warmer; in spring, the snow becomes softer in the middle of the day, perfect for a sunny outing. The weather changes quickly in the mountains, so be sure to check the local weather forecast and take along sunglasses, sunscreen and a little water.
