Ski Resorts - Courchevel 1850

France’s premier ski destination for the most discerning of travellers wishing to spend a luxurious break in the French Alps, Courchevel is the best that Les Trois Vallees has to offer. The resort is part of the biggest single ski area with arguably the most convenient skiing in the world and is located a little over 2 hours from Geneva and Lyon.

Courchevel repeatedly wins accolades for the determined efforts to protect the snow conditions of its’ hundreds of kilometres of manicured slopes and its renowned lift system. The system of runs continues into the vast ski domain of Les Trois Vallees, providing access (even for modest intermediates) to over 600 kms of piste. For the more advanced skiers and snow boarders, there are limitless opportunities for off piste adventure from gentle powder fields to challenging couloirs. From the terrace of one of the many exclusive restaurants dotted around the picturesque Courchevel bowl, you can select from menus designed by celebrated chefs.

There is a selection of après ski bars in the village and on the slopes, some with live music, to enjoy a well-deserved cold beer or a warming vin chaud. For the shopaholic, there are a myriad of fashionable boutiques and designer shops to stay up to date with the ‘jet-set’ on and off the slopes. For the restaurant aficionado, there is a huge selection of restaurants, ranging from Thai to Brasserie, to Michelin starred gourmet establishments for those special occasions.
