The Three Valleys

Different villages. One big journey.

Saint-Martin, Méribel, Courchevel, Les Menuires and Val Thorens—this is much more than one resort entry.

#5 in my Top Ten film · October 2026

Why it is number five

My Top Ten film puts the Three Valleys at number five. I talk about quaint Saint-Martin-de-Belleville, stunning Méribel, Courchevel’s posh shops and the high-mountain feel of Val Thorens. The attraction is moving between places with different personalities.

The base and the road trip

Saint-Martin-de-Belleville was a base in the March–April 2024 chapter of my skiing journey. Episode 11 later looks back on a longer trip through Val d’Isère, Tignes and the Three Valleys, naming Courchevel, Méribel, Les Menuires and Val Thorens.

Explore the individual pages

Each of those places now has its own entry. Some are detailed archive notes linked to the wider episode; they are not five invented full reviews. The photographs labelled Three Valleys archive belong to the area collection unless a town scene has been individually identified.

Making a linked day work

The Three Valleys’ official map and live status are the place to plan connections and the return to your base. Leave time for the actual lifts you need. A large connected network offers choice, but it also rewards planning around your group and the day’s conditions.
