Ski area Les Menuires - St. Martin

The "Les Menuires - St. Martin" lift pass gives you access to 160 kilometres of pistes and 33 lifts around St. Martin and Les Menuires. The ski area offers plenty of variety for both beginners and slightly advanced skiers and is very diverse. Some deep snow slopes are also waiting for their fans. The panorama is overwhelming, as the ski area includes several peaks close to the 3,000 metre mark, such as the Mont de la Chambre (2,850 m) or the Roc des 3 Marches (2,704 m).

At the Point de la Masse (2,804 m), there are some tricky descents such as the "Dame Blanche", but also enjoyable runs such as the valley descent to St. Martin. There is the perfect descent for every ability level. Les Menuires is also home to the longest descent in the 3 Vallées: the 12-kilometre descent from the summit of the Cime de Caron.

Ski tourers also get their money's worth, as a number of new and exciting routes have been added in recent years. In the same period, the ski resort has also increased the performance of its own lift facilities around the groomed pistes with investments in the double-digit millions, which has led to shorter journey times and lower energy consumption in the interests of sustainability.

But that's not all when it comes to technology: winter sports enthusiasts travelling in the ski area can also use the free "Les 3 Vallées" app. This provides detailed information about piste and lift opening times, the local weather or the best huts for a lunch break straight to your smartphone. In the event of an accident on the piste, the app can even be used to alert the emergency services with just one click.

Night skiing St. Martin

Night skiing in France is a special experience. The mega ski area "Les 3 Vallées" in particular, with its huge range of pistes, offers everything that makes the winter sports heart beat faster. It is also possible to ski at night here. If you spend your skiing holiday in the 3 Vallées, you can still make your turns on the slopes after sunset in the Courchevel ski area. Here, the 8-seater "Verdons" gondola lift extends its operating hours until 8 pm every Wednesday. Skiers and snowboarders of all ages can enjoy the "Family Park" snow park and the "Verdons" piste with floodlights and music. Also on Wednesday, the "Péclet" gondola lift in Val Thorens will operate until 18:30. Winter sports enthusiasts can then even whizz down the floodlit piste at an altitude of almost 3,000 metres.

Snowpark: Pixel Area St. Martin

Unfortunately, there is no snow park in St. Martin itself. However, the "Pixel Area" snow park is located in the Les Menuires ski area right next door. This is located at an altitude of 2,500 metres directly at the "La Becca" chairlift, but can also be reached via the "Sunny Express". The Pixel Area is fun for the whole family, with a range of modules for young and old.

On the boardercross course, you can find a good introduction to the combination of speed and freestyle fun with small woops, bumps and sharp turns. For freestylers, parcours and skicross fans, there is also the pixel area with rails, kicks and moguls. Here you can show everyone your best tricks. If you need a break, you can relax on the new panoramic terrace and watch the other riders perform.

For the somewhat more laid-back riders, there is the "Friendly Natural Park", which can be reached from the "Masse 1" gondola. Here, young and old can play together and explore the wildlife of the Vanoise National Park. There is a parallel slalom, ski games and a picnic area for the whole family.

If you're looking for more adventures, Les 3 Vallées with its various snow parks is just the place for you. There are plenty of alternatives and top opportunities to let off steam here!
