Ski Holidays for Non Skiers, guest blog by Ski Cuisine

So, your family wants to go on a ski holiday, but you aren’t a fan of skiing. Don’t worry because you are not alone! Often there is at least one member of a family, couple, or group that doesn’t want to ski, but that doesn’t you have to just sit in the chalet twisting your thumbs whilst everyone else hits the slopes.

Meribel offers some excellent alternative activities and amenities to keep you entertained. There are superb facilities at the Meribel Olympic Sports Centre, just by the Chaudanne lifts, with a swimming pool, ten-pin bowling, ice-skating and even a climbing wall and all are superb choices for a morning or afternoon. Or spoil yourself at one of the hotel spas.

There is also a Meribel market that is held twice-weekly, with many stalls displaying a selection of cheeses, cured meats, confectionery and the occasional clothing bargain. There is even a cinema that plays English films.

You can purchase a pedestrian lift pass and as many of the mountain restaurants can be accessed from the gondolas, this gives you a chance to meet with friends for lunch at the mountain restaurants and bathe on the sun terraces.

You can also get to Courchevel 1850 with the pedestrian lift pass, giving you access to all that it has.

So how about it? Just look at all the things you could do!

• Swimming
• Hot Air Ballooning
