Les 3 Vallées. Mix.
































I did not know about it .. but Les Trois Vallées or The Three Valleys (Savoie départementFranceis the largest ski area in the world which is connected solely by ski lifts and slopes. It has more than 600 km (410 miles) of ski slopes, resulting in 18.5 km² of groomed runs. In addition, there are 120 km for cross-country skiing. Les Trois Vallées has 183 ski lifts, which can transport 260,000 skiers per hour. Other equipment owned by the operating companies include 1,920 snow cannons and 76 piste bashers. Employees in the area include 424 ski patrollers and 1,500 ski instructors.  !!!!

It was simply fantastic, lots of people from all around the world go there, even Canadians fly to Les 3 Vallées on a ski vacation ! I had a wondeful time with my little 'crew' skiing all around : Méribel, Courchevel, Val Thorens .. always trying new slopes, green, blue, red, and also black ! (hehe) , big wide slopes or little ones through the fir trees and country cottages ..
