For a unique school holiday in the mountains, we invite you to come and stay at the resort of Méribel, at the heart of the largest ski area in the world: the Three Valleys.

From now until the end of the season, Méribel holidaymakers can look forward to a number of exceptional events and activities. These include the incomparable Descente des Flambeaux.

During your stay in Méribel, you'll enjoy breathtaking scenery, as well as a range of events that will help you discover the resort from a whole new angle. Among the most popular is the famous Descente aux Flambeaux, a show organised by esf.

A few words about the Descente aux Flambeaux. This is an event during which esf instructors, accompanied by their pupils if they wish, descend the slopes of the resort, putting on a most impressive light show. As close as you can get to the ski schools, you'll be able to admire a mesmerising light show, thanks to the torches and lanterns carried by the skiers in their red jackets.

Planning a skiing holiday for the festive season? There's nothing quite as magical as a lit-up resort, with entertainment to please young and old alike.

To immerse yourself in a truly magical world on Christmas Eve or New Year's Eve, come and discover the famous Descente aux Flambeaux (torchlight descent) and the visual extravaganza it offers. These incredible light displays will put you in the perfect festive mood for the end of the year.

With family or friends, you're guaranteed a unique experience in the heart of the 3 Vallées.

The Torchlight Descent is a famous esf event, which ski school pupils can also take part in if they wish.

Armed with a torch or a lantern that they have already acquired, they can accompany their instructor on the descent, provided, of course, that their level allows them to do so. It's a chance to plunge into the heart of this magical world and let yourself be lulled by the sound of powder and applause, under a breathtaking light show.
