Chalet Rouse

Tucked away in the heart of Courchevel, Chalet Rouse enjoys a privileged location just steps away from the village centre, slopes, and ski lifts.

To get your holiday started, you can easily access Courchevel no matter how you prefer to travel. If you wish to fly, the nearest major airports are Geneva, Lyon, Chamberly, or Grenoble, all of which are within a three-hour drive of the resort. Once at the airport, you can arrange for private transfers, hop on a shared shuttle service to the resort, or rent a private vehicle to complete the journey yourselves.

Once you arrive at the chalet, get ready for a fun-filled winter paradise that caters to your every desire. In Courchevel, the main attraction is skiing, and as you step outside of Chalet Rouse, you'll find yourself on the sprawling slopes that make up the renowned Three Valleys, the largest ski area in the world.

Ski enthusiasts will delight in the vast network of slopes catering to all levels of expertise, while non-skiers can participate in a number of additional snow-based activities around the resort, such as dog sledding, snow tubing, and ice climbing.

Courchevel also boasts plenty to see and do away from the mountain. Enjoy a leisurely stroll through the quaint streets dotted with boutiques, sip hot chocolate in the fresh air at one of the mountain-facing cafes, or pop into a restaurant to sample mouthwatering Savoyard specialities like fondue and raclette.

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 Three 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.
