What's new on the slopes of Méribel & Les 3 Vallées for winter 2026-2027

New on the ski lifts

Plattières gondola is becoming a work of art!

This winter, the Plattières telecabine will be brightened up with an artistic touch. Several gondolas will be sporting original artworks by Lucas Beaufort, an artist renowned for his illustrative works inspired by the mountains, surf and snow sport culture.

With a nod to the history of this bubble lift whose previous personalised gondola cabins made their mark on visitors, this new version will give a unique and colourful identity to your journey to the summits.

On your ride up, spot each of the new design bubbles and enjoy a little splash of art in the mountains!

Châtelet chairlift: back in action

Good news for freestylers: the Châtelet chairlift will return to service this winter! With direct access from the bottom of the Snowpark, the chairlift allows quick and easy access to the top without needing to descend to resort level.

You can get plenty of laps of the Méribel-Mottaret Snowpark and make the most of all the features.

Get back into the rhythm of riding and session the Snowpark all day long!

Work concludes on the Rhodos gondola

The renovation of Rhodos bubble lift is complete! This winter the arrival station will have a new look to bring work on the modernisation of the technical equipment, gondolas and stations to a close.

Façades, platforms, toilet facilities and a ski school room: everything has been designed for greater comfort and better services. Make the most of a comfortable ride every time!

New on the slopes

A new look for Méribel Snowpark

Check out the new look for the Méribel-Mottaret Snowpark this winter! New signage, clearer navigation and redesigned graphics: everything is in place to build the identity of this freestyle zone.

The aim? To ensure riders find their feet straight away and get into the spirit of freestyle as soon as they arrive. A Snowpark that’s easier to navigate, more recognisable and, above all, more immersive, so riders can maximise every session and try all the features!

The Niverolle piste gets a makeover

The Pas du Lac area continues to evolve this winter with a reprofiling of the Niverolle piste. The redesign will mean a smoother run, even better to ride.

And that’s not all; Niverolle now has snowmaking equipment to guarantee consistent snow cover through the whole season.

In brief: a more fluid and enjoyable ride to help you enjoy the Pas du Lac area to the max!

New snowmaking facilities for the Truite piste

This winter, the Truite ski slope will also be sporting a fresh new look! Its snowmaking equipment has been completed renovated to reinforce and improve snow conditions.

Linking Méribel-Mottaret and Méribel Centre, this ski slope provides a gentle descent between the two sectors, now with enhanced snow coverage throughout the entire season.

An improvement which will make your runs down the Truite even more pleasant.

New in the ‘Les 3 Vallées’ app

A new app feature to help guide you around the slopes

This season will see a new feature appear on the Les 3 Vallées mobile phone app to make planning your routes within the ski area even easier. Simply choose your destination, and the app will give you the best route.

Whether you want to:

  • Go to a mountain restaurant

  • Meet up with others

  • Head off to discover a new area

All you need to do is follow the guide! The itinerary adapts to your ski level and to the conditions in resort in real time, depending on the lifts and ski slopes that are open. An easy way to get around the 600km of pistes in the 3 Valleys without wasting time or getting lost!

Download the 3 Vallées app and test the new feature this winter!

New in the 3 Valleys

In Courchevel

La Tania gondola

Thirty-five years after its first season, La Tania’s gondola is being modernised. Gone are the old cabins where you had to remain standing during the journey: make way for the 52 new 8-seater gondolas, with comfortable benches, wider doors, a panoramic view and spaces for skis and snowboards.

The arrival and departure stations and technical equipment have also been renovated to give a smoother, more pleasant ride for foot passengers and skiers alike.

In Les Menuires

La Montagnette and Pixel Area

This winter, the fun zones at La Montagnette and the Pixel Area welcome new features for sliding and games in the snow.

Challenges, descents and discovery: the redesigned spaces area ideal for children and the young-at-heart, a perfect spot with all you need to brighten up your day.

In Orelle - Val Thorens

Le télésiège de Peyron

Over to Orelle, where there is a new photo opportunity to be found on Peyron chairlift! Newly installed on the lift, you can capture a souvenir of your journey to the summit and take home a photo from your day with a beautiful backdrop of snowy peaks.

A souvenir of your journey to the heights of Orelle!
