Location

Perched at an altitude of 1,300 metres, Courchevel Le Praz beckons winter enthusiasts with its discreet charm and tranquil ambiance. Nestled on a vast plateau and surrounded by the enchanting forests of Courchevel, this village, just 250 metres from the resort centre, promises a unique alpine experience, embracing the serene beauty of the Dent du Villard and the majestic Grand Bec.

The strategic location of Courchevel Le Praz unfolds as a gateway to a winter wonderland. Merely 450 metres away, the Le Praz cable car and La Forêt chairlift offer seamless access to the expansive slopes of Courchevel 1850, the highest village in the resort. As you embark on your alpine adventure, the closest track, Jean Blanc, awaits just 200 metres from your doorstep, promising endless descents on the world's largest ski area.

Beyond the thrill of skiing, Courchevel Le Praz is not just a haven for winter sports enthusiasts. The village comes alive at après-ski, with the snow-front buzzing with energy as skiers return to extend their alpine pleasures. Culinary delights await, as Courchevel Le Praz boasts excellent restaurants serving up savoury Savoyard specialties, perfect for rounding off a day of exhilarating adventures on the slopes.

The renowned Praz Olympic springboard, a relic from the 1992 Olympic Games, still stands proudly in this region, and is actively used. This unique installation, the only one of its kind in France, adds a touch of Olympic history to the charm of Courchevel Le Praz, making it not just a destination for skiing but a captivating journey through time and tradition.

Getting to and around

Courchevel is made up of six satellite villages, each with their own distinct style and atmosphere, and picturesque forest roads to lead you in-between. Most well known is the illustrious Courchevel 1850 with its reputation for exclusivity and an A-List clientele. 1850 is certainly the place to go for five-star hotels, swanky bars and extravagant nightlife.

The other Courchevel villages (such as Courchevel Moriond) have a much more laid back vibe and are certainly the more affordable choice. The skiing in Courchevel is split into four levels and you can take an excellent free ski bus in between. At the resort itself you have 150 kilometres of pistes at your feet and while you can get a Courchevel lift-pass you can also ski the whole of the 3 Valleys with an area-pass. Since the slopes here face north, the snow at Courchevel is more reliable than elsewhere in the Three Valleys.

Courchevel pistes are absolutely unrivaled, meticulously maintained and perfectly positioned to align with the landscape. With its highest lift at 2740m altitude, Courchevel is exceptionally good for high altitude skiing with incredible alpine views, and the most impressive runs are best suited for intermediate and advanced skiers.

But for the little ones just finding their snow legs, the resort has a fantastic children’s village where they can learn in a stress-free environment. Ski season here lasts until late April and even if you prefer not to ski at all, you’ll be well entertained with everything from scenic walks to classical music concerts.

In the evenings, the Courchevel night skies are lit up by spectacular firework displays that could get anyone in the mood for a night on the town. The bars here are a good mix of casual and upmarket, so there’s plenty for all tastes to enjoy when it comes to après-ski.

Courchevel also has a well-earned reputation for being the best ski resort when it comes to gastronomy.
