By Train

Travelling by train is an environmentally sound alternative to flying to Meribel, as well as now being easy and price competitive.

We are very excited about the Sunday Eurostar / TGV service from Kings Cross to Moutiers changing in Paris.  By using Cityline transfer company to meet you at the platform in Paris-Nord and take you to Paris-Lyon this part of the journey has become much easier and cheaper (only €30 each way). 

If you are considering travelling by train for the first time we strongly recommend you visit www.snowcarbon.co.uk a user friendly guide.

By Car

Driving to Méribel in your own car gives you more flexibility and is, perhaps, the more cost effective way to get there. If you are travelling with children it might offer a solution to carrying all the luggage! Méribel is a straightforward 600 mile journey from Calais taking 10-12 hours including stops and almost all on normally empty French motorways. You might consider staying in Dijon to break up the journey. Motorway tolls cost approximately €80 each way. You will need to book a channel crossing by ferry or Euro Tunnel: www.eurotunnel.com , www.poferries.com or www.norfolkline.co.uk.
