Les Menuires

A stop that should not disappear into an area name

Les Menuires is explicitly part of Episode 11’s account of the Three Valleys trip, alongside Courchevel, Méribel and Val Thorens. It now has its own place in the archive so you can find the relevant episode and the wider valley photographs.

My experience

Les Menuires is explicitly part of Episode 11’s account of the Three Valleys trip, alongside Courchevel, Méribel and Val Thorens. It now has its own place in the archive so you can find the relevant episode and the wider valley photographs.

The full trip is in the podcast

Episode 11 puts this stop into the wider journey through Val d’Isère, Tignes and the Three Valleys. Watch the Top Ten film for the shorter explanation of why the whole area ranks fifth for me.

Use the area guide too

The Three Valleys page brings together the base, neighbouring resorts and the shared photo archive. Area photographs below are labelled as such; they should not be read as individually verified scenes of every village.

Plan the return

Use the official map and live lift status for the route back to your accommodation. Choose the day around the available connections, visibility and everyone’s ability, rather than trying to tick off the whole network.
