Best fine dining: L’Ekrin at Le Kaila



<a href="https://www.lekaila.com/en/l-ekrin-gastronomic-restaurant-meribel" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">L’Ekrin</a> is a Michelin star dining experience nestled in the heart of Le Kaila hotel in the centre of Méribel centre. Chef Laurent Azoulay is a creative chef and celebrates the changing Savoy seasons through his delicious courses, where much of the produce is sourced from the valley. A special note about L’Ekrin – they pre prepare parts of their menu served at their take away deli. So if you don’t get an opportunity to eat here, you can get a slice of the magic to take home with you.

Our favourite thing about Le Panoramic is they’ll swap your cold ski boots for warm slippers when you arrive, so you can really relax into ultimate comfort during your lunch. The decor is spectacular and the menu matches. Try the heroes of the menu &#8211; the mouth-watering cote du bœuf or suckling pork shoulder for a meaty feast.

For a cruisy blue – take the Chapelets chairlift and follow signs to the snow park but instead take the lovely wide blue run just to the left. It’s always groomed to perfection and is generally quite quiet compared to the adjoining piste next door. From here it would be a shame not to visit Mont Valon with a staggering summit of 2,952m – the ski down is a little windy and steep but the views at the top make it worthwhile!

In our opinion, two of the most underrated runs in Méribel are Faon and Blaireau, accessible from the top of the Tougnette 2 lift. They are typically quiet, well-groomed and perfect for both the speedsters and cruisers. Trust us – you’ll struggle to stop lapping these pistes. Once you have had enough, take a pit stop at the stunning <a href="https://www.maya-altitude.com/?lang=en" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Maya Altitude</a>. It’s pure luxury, and a gorgeous spot for a mountainside lunch break or hot chocolate.

When a fresh dump of powder arrives, you may want to be in the deep stuff. Head straight towards the Loze chair where you can hop in and out of the trees for some gentle off-piste or try the controlled off-piste zone located off the top of the Saulire ski lift.



Méribel is an absolutely perfect ski resort for anyone and everyone. It has something to offer every level and ability, and it’s quite honestly, one of the most stunning ski resorts in France. <a href="https://amaselections.com/france/luxury-chalet-rentals-french-alps/meribel" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">To book a luxury holiday chalet in Méribel, click here.</a>

<a href="https://amaselections.com/france/luxury-chalet-rentals-french-alps/courchevel" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Courchevel is a skier&#8217;s paradise</a>, celebrated by the tourists (and locals from neighboring valleys) for its long sloping pistes, incredible views of Mont Blanc and south-facing slopes. Situated in the Tarentaise Valley within the Savoie Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region, there’s a huge 150 km of piste to explore here. The main ski areas to familiarise yourself with in Courchevel are Courchevel 1850, Courchevel 1650 (Moriond or village), La Tania and La Praz.



<a href="https://courchevel.com/en/the-ski-area" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Click here to check out the map of Courchevel’s ski slopes and lifts so you can follow along</a>. We recommend you start your morning by heading towards the Loze chair. Here you can get the best out of the freshly groomed Dou des Lanches black (or take the dreamy rolling Arolles blue for a beginner intermediate alternative). Next, head down the Folyères blue towards la Tania – be prepared to get some cheeky air off the rollers.

When there’s a fresh dump of snow, dip under the Altiport chairlift through the trees for some safe, yet knee deep, beginner off-piste action. For the powder hounds, there are a couple of controlled zones worth a mention in the Courchevel valley, including the freeride lab and what’s known as the ‘go-pro’ couloir – both are exceptionally good spots.

Local tip – you’ll find the impressive <a href="https://www.cavedescreux-courchevel.com/en/home" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Cave des Creux</a> restaurant at the bottom of the wide sloping Cave des Creux piste. From the top of the Saulire lift it’s a fantastic ski down for intermediate and above levels. If you’re lucky you may be serenaded by resident strolling band The Strikes and be persuaded to stay for lunch. Of course, the Courchevel Family Park deserves a mention too, boasting a boardercross, giant airbag and everything you’d expect from an impressive snowpark.

Chamonix is one of the best ski resorts in the world for exhilarating, wild skiing and touring.

Despite being known for its off-piste expert terrain there are some good spots for intermediate skiers looking for a challenge – just head towards the Les Grand Montets and Le Brévent ski areas and see for yourself.

Best Italian in Courchevel: Mille Sabords (1850)



<a href="https://www.maisontournier.com/en/page/restaurant-mille-sabords-courchevel-maison-tournier.4852.html" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Mille Sabords</a> is the only Italian restaurant in Courchevel on the slopes. It&#8217;s entirely unique, with a menu serving transalpine, Italian dishes. The truffle risotto and Milanese Veal is a must try or give their renowned Cognac flambéed penne served in a Parmesan cheese wheel a go. Owned by the luxurious Maison Tournier brand, the interior celebrates life under the ocean, somehow making it feel entirely relevant to life thousands of metres above the sea floor.

Best luxury piste side restaurant: Le Chalet de Pierres (1850)



The atmosphere at <a href="https://www.chaletdepierres.com/en/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Le Chalet De Pierres</a> is always fantastic in part due to its accessible location, great service and dreamy menu. The building was once a former Maurienne train station, and the cultural heritage is celebrated in the design. The signature dish is their seafood and shellfish, prepared by the master Ecailler. If you want something a little lighter, their sumptuous buffet is a wonderful choice.

<a href="https://www.maisontournier.com/en/page/restaurant-casserole-courchevel-maison-tournier.4928.html" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">La Casserole</a>’s dark interior is moody and inviting at the same time. It’s a fantastic mid-morning break spot from skiing – particularly as it’s home to the best hot chocolate in Courchevel. Yet the hot drinks aren’t the only delicious thing about La Casserole – with incredible grilled meats and whole-farm chickens served, it&#8217;s a place that celebrates farming in a totally luxurious way.

Val d’Isère is the combined ski resort area of Val d&#8217;Isère and Tignes in the Tarentaise Valley, Savoie in the French Alps. Connected by 300 km of high-altitude ski slopes, together they make up the sprawling Espace Killy ski area. To get a feel for the scale of the area, <a href="https://www.valdisere.com/download/plan_des_pistes.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">click here to browse the map of the Val d’Isère ski runs, ski lifts and villages</a>.

The Val d’Isère ski area is admittedly a little unconventional – in that instead of the easier terrain being at the bottom of the hill and the steeper slopes at higher altitudes, the opposite is true. For beginners looking for accessible pistes from the main town of Val d’Isère, we suggest getting the lifts up to the top of the Solaise ski area and giving the sprawling, high-altitude Madeleine and Marais pistes a go. Or, if you’re staying in the hamlet of La Daille, the gentle greens from the top of the Borsat Chair are delightful. There are even 8 free lifts for you to use in the Tignes area specifically. Then at the end of the day – take a ride back down in the lifts for a safe way to arrive at après ski.

For families &#8211; the Val Kids fun area boasts an igloo and even a mini-zipline. At the Aquasportif your little ones will even be able to drive electric mini snowmobiles! If you’re an intermediate skier looking for some on-piste fun in the Solaise ski area head for the Glacier Chair where you’ll be able to enjoy sloping, varied blue runs all the way back into the main town – or for those seeking out a peaceful slope, take the bus to the Laisinant chair in the middle of Le Fornet and Val d’Isère to enjoy the long (often deserted) red run. Looking for minimal lifts and maximum ski time in Tignes? Try Aiguille Percee to enjoy the famous ‘Eye of the Needle.’ From here you can ski down 4 yummy blue runs all the way into Tignes Les Brevieres.
