Visitor Reviews of Méribel
Baz from United Kingdom writes:
Dropped in to Meribel again for visit this season and was pleased to see they have a much better park in the Mottaret area again. Significantly improved on the season I was here before in 2020. Nicely shaped kickers of decent size, and it's great to see. When done well it gets people into trying and doing. And that can only benefit the sport. Hopefully, the resort will continue to give the guys from the park more resources, cause they know what to do when they get the opportunity. The rest of the resort needs little introduction and is very nice, picturesque even by French standards. Some great apres bars around, including Le Rond Point :-) Enjoy it at your peril if you have to ski down afterwards! The resort do an excellent job of maintaining the numerous pistes around and you have access to 3 valleys if you want to, and it is worth it, all areas being maintained to a very high standard. Even though temps are a bit above average you will still find decent skiing across the area. Enjoy :-)
