Meribel Snow Report & Forecast
Discover the latest Meribel snow conditions
Meribel has settled into a relaxing mid winter groove this week, with the resort looking calm and snowy after the large snowfall a week or so ago. The snow on the lower pistes remain good, while higher up the mountain there is some really excellent conditions to be found. The season feels well established now and conditions on the mountain are consistent, rather than changeable.
Snow and Weather Summary
Current snow depths are holding at around 190 to 210cm on the upper mountain, with approximately 110 to 130cm at resort level. There has been no significant snowfall since the previous storm, but a light dusting of a few centimetres at altitude earlier this week has helped keep piste surfaces fresh. Daytime temperatures at altitude have been sitting between -6 and -3 degrees Celsius, with the freezing level hovering close to 1800m. Snow conditions are skiing well across most of the area, with soft, groomed pistes and packed powder higher up, while lower and sunnier runs are firmer in the mornings and soften gradually by early afternoon. Winds have been light, allowing lift operations to run smoothly and keeping wind affected snow to a minimum.
Outlook & What’s On
The outlook for the coming days is largely dry with a mix of cloud and brighter spells. Temperatures are expected to remain seasonable, which should help preserve snow quality, particularly on higher and north facing slopes. Any new snowfall looks light and mainly focused on upper elevations later in the week. In resort, Meribel continues its regular winter programme with torchlight descents, village events and evening entertainment.
Snow Takeaway
Meribel is offering dependable mid winter skiing, with the best conditions holding on higher and north facing terrain where snow quality remains most consistent. Early starts suit the lower runs before they firm up, while spending more time at altitude will give the best snow over the next few days.
