Spring skiing in La Tania and Meribel

The spring conditions are continuing here in Meribel and La Tania in the Les Trois Vallees, not a bad thing in the middle of March. This season is a real contrast to last year when the Winter seemed to carry on until the start of the Summer in June. Recently we have had a run of really nice weather with warm sunny days, it is a definite change in the seasons from Winter to Spring.


As well as good weather conditions we also have great snow thanks to regular falls throughout the Winter. Again, this is very different to last year when we had good snow but largely as a result of bigger snowfalls, this year has seen a lot of small falls forming the base. We are experiencing slushy conditions on the sunny slopes but not too bad and easily manageable on modern skis and snowboards. The north facing slopes still have Winter snow with around 1.5metres on the upper slopes. 


With just over a month remaining we are all looking forward to a great Spring season in the Alps. If you are interested in a late ski or snowboard chalet holiday we still have availability between now and the end of the 2013/2014 season.
