We went to go spend a fantastic weekend in Meribel which was very different to what we are used to in Verbier! There are an endless amount of slopes which span across 3 domains – Courchevel, Meribel, and Val Thorens. The type of skiing we did was a new experience to me as the domain is so huge, you tend and do ski “promenades” (kind of like doing Les 4 Vallees) rather then focussed skiing as you would in Verbier. The pistes are very well groomed, there are hardly any bumps or moguls except if you venture off-piste, and there are few crowds. However, the pistes are not very challenging, not varied and there are limited off-piste possibilities. So we are now back in Verbier!
