Why La Tania is Highly Rated for Advanced Skiers

La Tania has earned the bronze award for Best Ski Resorts for Advanced Skiers. With an impressive 4.69/5.00 rating due to La Tania offering unparalleled access to challenging terrain both in resort and across the Three Valleys. While the village itself is modest in size, its strategic position delivers quick access to some of the most technical runs in the Alps. One Snomad community member, Jack, an expert UK skier, highlights the excellent off-piste options under the Dou des Lanches chair, where adventurous skiers can "pop the small cliffs back towards the groomers or go through the Gassex machines." For those seeking even more demanding conditions, he recommends the advanced routes off the back of Col Loze towards Meribel, with the option to "hike up plumbers crack to Rocher Loze for more adventure." The final blue run into the village is famously deceptive, described by users as "more of a red, great end of day, zero turns leg burner."

What truly makes La Tania exceptional for advanced skiers is the combination of steep slopes and its perfect gateway position between Courchevel and Meribel valleys. Merrick, an expert skier, calls it "a largely undiscovered gem" with "the run back to La Tania through the trees being one of the best in the area." Will, another expert skier in our community, notes that "you only need to take two lifts before you are into the huge terrain area that the three Valleys has to offer." The challenging conditions are highlighted by Tom, who mentions that "La Tania slopes don't get much sun so can become icy quickly when it gets compacted," creating technically demanding conditions that advanced skiers relish. Sam, an advanced UK skier, points out that the resort contains "a former Mens World Championship downhill course," confirming La Tania's legitimate credentials as a serious destination for skilled skiers.
