Location
About the surrounding area of Chalet CedarThe picturesque village of La Tania is a small, family friendly ski resort at an altitude of 1400m. La Tania is just ten minutes’ drive from Courchevel and Meribel and with excellent access to the whole of the Three Valleys’ impressive ski area. The resort is the newest, enjoying a good selection of shops, bars, restaurants, ski hire shops and ski facilities. Its traffic-free centre is so pretty and the chalets and apartments are surrounded by spruce forests. The village lies at the foot of blue and green runs and good skiers can even ski through the forest off piste to return to the chalet later in the day.
As well as skiing, there is a good range of winter and summer entertainment in La Tania including snowshoeing, sledging, night skiing, cross country skiing through the trees, paragliding and much more. The entertainment of Courchevel and Meribel is easily accessible too. If you fancy dancing the night away or partying until the early hours in a lively apres-ski bar, all is possible. There are good facilities for children too with a nursery centre for young ones aged four months to five years and a Piou Piou skiing kindergarten for three to five year olds. There is a good range of restaurants in La Tania from inexpensive pizzas and snacks up to the Michelin starred gastronomic restaurant, Le Farcon. You can enjoy plenty of typical Savoyard cuisine as well as child friendly meals. You will find some bars offering happy hours and delicious cocktails as well as some live sports and music venues.
La Tania is sandwiched between the famous resorts of Courchevel and Meribel in an area that offers skiers the ultimate choice of skiing. The highest lift in the Three Valleys is at 3200m and there are over 2000 snow cannons guaranteeing superb snow during the season. The main twelve person gondola out of La Tania links to two high speed chairs from where you can choose to drop towards Courchevel via Chenus or over the Col de la Loze towards Meribel. There is skiing for every standard. La Tania itself has 38 snow cannons and four ski hire shops. The ski schools operating in La Tania are ESF, Supreme Ski and Snowboard School, Magic in Motion, New Generation, Ultimate Snowsports, Cab9, Momentum Ski and Ski Class so there is lots of choice. La Tania has a free beginners drag lift which is helpful for those first moments.

The Resort
Courchevel is made up of six satellite villages, each with their own distinct style and atmosphere, and picturesque forest roads to lead you in-between. Most well known is the illustrious Courchevel 1850 with its reputation for exclusivity and an A-List clientele. 1850 is certainly the place to go for five-star hotels, swanky bars and extravagant nightlife. The other Courchevel villages (such as Courchevel Moriond) have a much more laid back vibe and are certainly the more affordable choice.
The skiing in Courchevel is split into four levels and you can take an excellent free ski bus in between. At the resort itself you have 150 kilometres of pistes at your feet and while you can get a Courchevel lift-pass you can also ski the whole of the Three Valleys with an area-pass. Since the slopes here face north, the snow at Courchevel is more reliable than elsewhere in the Three Valleys. Courchevel pistes are absolutely unrivaled, meticulously maintained and perfectly positioned to align with the landscape.
With its highest lift at 2740m altitude, Courchevel is exceptionally good for high altitude skiing with incredible alpine views, and the most impressive runs are best suited for intermediate and advanced skiers. But for the little ones just finding their snow legs, the resort has a fantastic children’s village where they can learn in a stress-free environment. Ski season here lasts until late April and even if you prefer not to ski at all, you’ll be well entertained with everything from scenic walks to classical music concerts.
In the evenings, the Courchevel night skies are lit up by spectacular firework displays that could get anyone in the mood for a night on the town. The bars here are a good mix of casual and upmarket, so there’s plenty for all tastes to enjoy when it comes to après-ski. Courchevel also has a well-earned reputation for being the best ski resort when it comes to gastronomy.
Kids
Best Suited For: All AgesChalet Cedar is perfect for families or friends with children. Sleeping up to twelve guests, it is big enough for two families. The chalet is very well designed with a large entertainment space, ideal for family board games, chilling and watching a movie or large evening meals.
La Tania is excellent for families with a kindergarten and creche and a good number of excellent ski schools. There is a free drag lift for beginners and a good range of slopes. As well as skiing, children can enjoy sledging, the usual snow ball fights, night skiing during the school holidays, bumboarding, soft play and much more. Bumboarding is very popular with children. You just need to get hold of the board which is basically a colourful tray with a handle and take it to the foot of La Tania’s slopes where they will have so much fun. There is also a climbing frame there for fun. There is a brilliant 1.7km toboggan run between 1850 and 1550. With a ski pass you can take the bubble lifts back to the top until 8pm finding the floodlit track. You can hire a toboggan from a local ski shop and it is so much fun! The centre of La Tania is pedestrian only which is very popular with families. There are a good range of restaurants serving child-friendly meals.
Courchevel and Meribel are only ten minutes away in the car with some excellent activities for children. If your children are too little to ski all day, there is a free soft play centre under the Croisette building in Courchevel 1850. Also at 1850 and outside the Croisette, there are horses and ponies with their carriages waiting to take families on a ride around the resort. There is a merry-go-round and lots of stalls offering delicious treats. In the Forum at 1850 there is an ice rink and bowling alley. During February, the Three Valleys hosts an International Pyrotechnic Competition with the most amazing fireworks. You might have to take a bus to get to it but it is incredible. In Meribel, La Chaudanne enjoys an outstanding complex, Parc Olympique which offers a swimming pool, gym, ice rink, spa, climbing wall, bowling alley and night club as well as an excellent medical centre.
The Altiport area of Meribel is a lovely way to introduce children to the slopes. Its Moon Wild route is very gentle and very pretty through the forest. Children also love the themed areas and snowparks. The Inuit village in the Altiport area enjoys banked turns, a mini slalom course and themed games. The moon park boasts ten hectares of obstacles to practice on and take jumps for those that are looking for more of a thrilling ski. Le P’tit Moon is a designated area for young skiers aged between six and twelve years old. If they are tired after morning ski lessons, there are some delightful picnic areas at the start of the Saulire Express and below the Pas du Lac gondola in Mottaret.
