Chalet Rochelle is located in the beautiful Alpine ski resort of Courchevel le Praz.
Conveniently located just a few minutes' walk from the ski slopes and a short drive from the resort's many high-end shops, restaurants, and bars, Chalet Rochelle is perfect for guests who like their peace and quiet while remaining in proximity to the centre of the action.
To reach the resort, you can fly into one of the nearby airports, such as Geneva or Lyon, both of which are around two and a half hours away. From there, you can easily arrange for a private transfer, take a taxi, or rent a car to reach the chalet.
The resort's ski area, known as the Three Valleys, is one of the largest in the world, with over 600km of idyllic ski slopes, making it a paradise for ski enthusiasts of all skill levels. The resort also offers a fantastic variety of après-ski activities, including live music, trendy bars, and delicious Alpine dining.
Courchevel is also well-known for its sophisticated cultural scene, with upmarket boutiques the norm, world-class spa facilities, and Michelin-star restaurants all calling the resort home.
The Region
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.
