Ski-in/ski-out

Most of La Tania's chalets and apartments sit on or beside the piste that runs down to the gondola, so plenty of addresses are genuinely ski-in/ski-out. The village is compact and largely pedestrian, so even where you cannot ski to the door it is a short, flat walk in ski boots.

Get to know the resort

Built for the 1992 Olympics below Courchevel, La Tania grew into one of the friendliest doors into Les 3 Vallées, the largest linked ski area in the world. A gondola lifts you out of the pines to Praz Juget, where blue runs fan out towards Courchevel and Méribel and the whole 600 km domain opens up on one pass. Down in the village, the pedestrian snow front, ski school meeting point and gentle nursery slopes sit a snowball's throw from the chalets, which is why families keep coming back. Evenings are quiet rather than glitzy, a handful of bars and restaurants with the tall trees muffling everything. It is Les 3 Vallées without the Courchevel price tag or bustle.

Good to know

  • The terrain is well balanced: 18 green, 30 blue, 28 red and 10 black runs, which suits a mixed group skiing together at different levels.
  • The base sits at 1400 m and the top reaches 2738 m, a profile that holds snow well across a normal winter (score 86/100).
  • It is one of the bigger domains here, 600 km of piste on 161 lifts, enough to ski a different sector every day of a week.
  • The lifts typically turn for about 19 weeks a season, planning around late January to late February tends to land the most reliable cover.
