Les menuires ski resort

Les Menuires has a privileged situation in Les 3 Vallées, the biggest ski area in the world (600 km of slopes and 180 ski lifts), an amazing diversity of slopes, tracks and activities…

The children are taken care of in the « villages » where they are welcome from the age of 3 months (in the Piou-Piou club of la Croisette, day care center, nursery and kinder garden)

Besides skiing you can go for a walk on foot or with the snowshoes, try the buggy or quad, enjoy the swimming pool or the fitness room. You can discover the local culture or go and listen to a classical concert at night.

Les Menuires keeps holding on to its warm and functional image (most of the buildings are on the slopes). Today the architectural landscape is made of chalets and residences made of wood and stone.
