The number one designer ski destination, this Three Valleys
resort retains its premier position as the most stylish place to
ski in France. With access to over 600km of perfect pistes shared
with the Meribel and Val Thorens valleys, Courchevel 1850 is ideal
for skiers of all standards. The ski resort has it all, and our
Chalethotel Dahu puts you right in the heart of it.
After skiing out on the easy, perfectly groomed pistes that run
through the centre of the resort, leisurely skiiers can potter
across to 1650 and enjoy lunch in style and sunshine. Stronger and
more adventurous skiers may head for the infamous couloirs at the
top of the Saulire cable car or the powder fields of Mont Vallon.
In bad weather, there's sheltered skiing in the forest above La
Tania and Le Praz. Many will want to try the end to end the
tour to the Maurienne Valley (beyond Val Thorens) and back, which,
with the new efficient lift system, is perfectly possible in a day
without rushing.
Bars, restaurants and nightclubs for every pocket mean that
nobody ever gets bored in Courchevel. Some are inevitably expensive
and others are surprisingly good value, but all have a fantastic
reputation atmosphere.
True, the skiing is fantastic, but there are plenty of others
activities on offer too. Ice skating, bowling, squash,
snow-shoeing, tobogganing, parascending, to name just a
few.
