World's Biggest Ski Resort. 3 Vallées, French Alps (March 19-24th, 2019)
The 3 Valleys are by far the biggest skiable terrain in the world. Courchevel, Méribel, Les Menuires, Val-Thorens, and Orelles are all connected together to create 'The 3 Valleys'. Val-Thorens has the highest ski base in Europe (2300m). Each valley has a very different vibe, from the rich posh Courchevel, to the english flooded Méribel (merry bells), and the distant lunar landscape of Orelles. The end of season skiing was great, with firm conditions up high and spring conditions down low.
