Ski Resort Guides

La Tania, France

The skiing links in to the massive 3 Valleys system - you're 2 lifts away from either Méribel or Courchevel 1850. The stats are massive - nearly 200 lifts with a capacity to carry 260,000 skiers per hour, 2500 hectares of groomed pistes some 600km in length with 293 marked runs and 130km of cross country tracks. There's also 1500 snow cannons, 70 piste bashers, 320 ski patrollers and over 1500 instructors to keep everyone happy. La Tania also boasts the use of the ski-school École du ski Français, the largest ski-school in France.

There are now 3 runs down into the resort, a roller coaster blue straight down through the forest in to the resort, a wide red run with a consistent gradient down to the bottom gondola station plus a new green run winding down through the forest from the top gondola station in to the resort, a great skier/boarder cross track on a first run down in the morning!

There's a real community feeling in La Tania and it's still small enough for everyone to know everyone. It's often called a small family resort which could put some people off - however there's a lot more to it and the nightlife can really kick off with live music most nights and plenty of parties to keep most night owls happy.

Resort worker Comments

"Pub Le Ski Lodge is the main bar and social centre of life in La Tania. Watch out for the Ski Lodge Cocktail if you have to work the next morning!"
