Meribel Snow Report & Forecast

Discover the latest Meribel snow conditions

Imprint
By Nye Erskine, Updated

Winter has now settled properly into Méribel and the valley is looking beautifully white. The pistes have been riding well since opening weekend and the fresh snow earlier in the week has topped things up nicely. The resort feels lively again, with skiers spreading across the mountain and the festive atmosphere starting to build in the chalets and the centre.

Snow & Weather Summary

Snow conditions are holding up well across the area. Upper slopes have a healthy base and most main runs are in good condition. Earlier this week brought a light but welcome snowfall which freshened the pistes. Temperatures have stayed cold at altitude, helping the snow remain dry and grippy through most of the day.

Through Thursday and into the weekend, the forecast shows a small chance of further light snow showers, mostly at higher elevations. Even a few extra centimetres would help keep the pistes in good shape. Freezing levels remain low for now, with overnight temperatures dropping well below zero across the mountain, meaning mornings should offer firm, consistent snow before softening slightly in the afternoon.

Lower slopes and areas closer to resort level have more variable coverage, but snowmaking has been running when conditions allow and key connections remain open.

Outlook & What’s On

The weather outlook for the next few days is generally settled and cold, which should preserve snow quality on the main pistes. If temperatures remain as forecast, conditions should stay stable right into the next week.

Méribel is also starting to get into the festive spirit. The resort’s Christmas light displays are now up, après venues are rolling out their winter programmes and several early-season events are taking place across the valley. This weekend sees a mix of family activities, live music and guided outings around the area, and more events will appear as we get closer to the holidays.

Snow Takeaway

It has been a strong start to the season in Méribel. The snowpack is healthy on the higher terrain, conditions are cold and stable, and the pistes are offering enjoyable skiing throughout the day. If the light snow forecast arrives, even in small amounts, the slopes should remain in very good shape as we move further into December. A great week to be here.

Playing with the camera we couldn't help but find this view charming - a picture postcard view of what the best of Meribel can offer. Chocolate box chalets, tree-line, and easily accessible pistes with fantastic snow coverage; tempted - who wouldn't be!

This is the webcam of the Folie Douce mountain restaurant in Meribel, home of some great apres-ski. In the background are the Biche (blue) Maudit (red) pistes; and the lift/mid-station is the Saulire Express giving access up and down to skiers and pedestrians alike so the Folie Douce is a great meeting place.
