A brief overview
Ideally located to access the mighty Three Valleys, though small
enough to lose the bustle of the evening crowds. This resort is a little secret
haven, nestled amongst the tree lined slopes in between its infamous neighbours
- chic Courchevel and picturesque Meribel. La Tania was built for the 1992
Winter Olympics and offers a peaceful retreat with all the comforts of a
compact, modern resort, built with practicality and comfort in mind. It is
ideally suited to families with younger children that are learning to ski and
those looking for a cosy and relaxed bolthole after a full days adventure the
massive 600km of ski terrain. Advanced skiers will savour the endless
opportunities for both on and off piste expeditions. While the apres ski is
generally low key, the buzzing resort centre offers a handful of shops and warm
inviting bars perfect for unwinding over a creamy mug of hot chocolate or a
steaming vin chaud.
