Summer family holidays

Your family summer holidays in the Alps

Méribel offers families the opportunity to take a complete break during the summer. Mountain summer holidays in France allow you to spend time together, yet everyone can go along at their own pace. With a wide range of different activities of varying degrees of difficulty, young and old alike can recharge their batteries and discover the mountains and the DNA of the valley.

Mountain activities and memories!

Bike Park and electric mountain bikes

The Bike Park offers 4 easy-access trails for electric mountain bikes. In addition, instructors from the MCF school offer the perfect outing to discover how electric bikes bring the mountain trails within your reach, in a fun, family-friendly atmosphere.

Children too young to ride an electric bike can use a standard bike with a ‘track’ system that allows them to be towed by an adult.
