Les
Menuires, France
Lift our eyes to the mountains - and
keep them there.
Les
Menuires is hideous, at least to our eyes. One day, we
confidently predict, they'll simply knock most of it down
and start again. But not everyone agrees - and it is
certainly the bargain base for the Trois Vallées, with
the bonus of immediate access to the excellent,
challenging slopes on La Masse, rarely used by visitors
from the other valleys.
