River rafting on the I'sére

River rafting on the I’sére

The snow has melted,except for the peaks, making the rivers gushing, so great for River rafting. The pastures are full of gorgeous wild flowers and the warm June sunshine days are on their way.
Mountain refuges are open for over night stays in the wild on long hikes, or just for a drink and lunch refresher.
June and the 1st 2 weeks of July are great times to visit, before the schools start their holidays.
Prices from £399 for a week for up to 6 people

Méribel winter 13/14 snow is arriving!

November 9th, 2013

The snow falls in The Méribel Valley are here!  The snow is starting to get further and further down the mountains. With colder weather and heavy snowfalls coming this week, we are getting a very good base for the season’s snow conditions.Lifts open 7 December, with the 1st week having reduced lift pass prices. A great week to come, as travel and accommodation costs at their lowest for the season.

Winter is creeping down the mountains now in The Méribel Valley

October 26th, 2013

Beautiful autumn is working its way down the mountains with the trees displaying their amazing array of colours, closely followed by the winter snows slowly stretching down from the peaks.

Soon the leaves will fall and the mountains will turn pristine white, leaving just the dark green fur trees, that catch  the snowflakes as they fall. Brooms to clear leaves will be put away and replaced with snow shovels to clear snow from the driveway and paths of Chalets  Champêtre, Burgin and Aux Cézares

Summer activities in full swing!

August 15th, 2013

We are having a busy summer with all the activities in full swing and many guests of meribelapartments risking the fun of the rapids by river rafting.
The mountain bike world championship takes place this weekend (17 & 18 August) so that will be awesome to watch.
The weather is great, clear skies, warm sunshine and no humidity, just perfect.
September quietens down a bit, but still plenty to do with mountain biking, hiking and water sports, rock climbing and loads more, but with all the kids back at school, a great place also for peace and tranquility: come and see for yourself!
