Méribel's most fun runs

Yeti Park, for all the family

Méribel Mottaret is home to our friendly mascot Yooni, the little blue yeti who will accompany you on your adventures. Whether you’re on skis or on foot, you can access the enchanting Himalayan world of the Yeti Park: a wide, gentle green run which includes lots of fun interactive features such as prayer wheels to spin, gongs to whack and horns to blow. Discover the magic of this snowy world and experience the thrill of the great Himalayan expeditions!

Race your children down the parallel or filmed slaloms, listen to Yooni’s stories in the secret grotto, whizz through the tunnels, visit the igloos, fly down the zip-line, and immerse yourselves in this magical winter wonderland

How to get there ? Take the Combes chairlift from Méribel-Mottaret.

The Inuit, welcome to the Far North

On the program: a family slalom between the games and animals on the ice floe, and a stopover at the Inuit village, where young and old alike can enjoy a host of fun activities.

On the trail, chimes, igloos, ice floes, penguins, bears and seals transport you to the Inuit world. In the heart of the forest, the village is always the ideal stopover for adventurers and skiers from the far north. Children can play free games and win prizes, while parents can relax on wooden deckchairs in the sun.

A fun and educational break from the slopes!
