Positive & Progressive Developments In Les Menuires

Unsure where to go skiing this winter? Les Menuires in The Three Valleys is a great choice this year, as it has undergone many positive developments lately. In addition to this, it is also a fun resort with easy access to the incredible 600km of pistes on offer in the region. These are just a few reasons why you should consider skiing in Les Menuires this winter:

Snow Conditions

The Three Valleys have superb snow conditions throughout the season. Snow covers 50% of the domain due to its high altitude, but the resort also has the ability to produce snow on the majority of the runs throughout the season. In fact, The Three Valleys are so confident in the conditions this winter that they will reimburse you for your lift pass if there is another European resort with more pistes open!

BK Park

The snowpack at Les Menuires has undergone a serious makeover for the winter season. There’s now a new snow sports zone complete with rails, kicks and moguls that any thrill-seeker will get a real kick out of. There are areas for all abilities to enjoy, including a “chill zone” where you can sit back and watch the action. There is also a video spot that films your descent, jump and landing, which is then sent to you via SMS – this is great for analysing your performance or for simply showing off to your friends back home.

Oxygène Ski School

Looking to develop your skills whilst skiing in Les Menuires? The new Oxygène ski school is a small independent school that’s born out of the success of the Magic Ski School in Val Thorens. Magic has now been merged with Oxygène and has adopted the Oxygène name to create one of the best places to learn to ski in the area. The expert instructors can help both children and adults get to grips with the basics and develop confidence in small group lessons. The lessons are in a fun yet supportive environment with a personalised and flexible approach for the best results.

Magic Fun Factory

Kids looking to learn the ropes and have some fun should also consider the Magic Fun Factory in Les Menuires. One of the oldest and most popular programmes in The Three Valleys, the Fun Factory can teach children everything from putting on skis to mastering the snow park, so little ones are sure to learn a thing or two here. What’s more, the lessons are always fun and lighthearted, ensuring that youngsters enjoy themselves whilst boosting their confidence, too. This is also a great way for children to make new friends.

Lessons for Disabled Skiers

If you or somebody who you are travelling with has a disability, Les Menuires has an impressive range of adapted equipment for adaptive ski lessons. The resort also offers discounts for disabled visitors and has improved access, and is committed to making sure that skiing is possible and enjoyable for all.

Ski-Drive Equipment Hire

Anyone who regularly goes skiing and rents their gear will be all too familiar with the lengthy queues that you can face, which is the last thing that you want after travelling for hours. This is now a thing of the past in Les Menuires, as you can book everything that you need in advance and then collect your kit, which will be loaded directly into your car. This means that you can get out and enjoy the powder as soon as you arrive.

Thanks to the great changes that have been made in the resort and The Three Valleys as a whole, skiing in Les Menuires this winter should be a fantastic experience!
