Courchevel 1550m

It is a less hectic, value-for-money resort, with tree lined runs and affordable restaurants hosting two of the best Alpine restaurants in the world. Wonderful snow coddled with great grooming stays, thanks to mostly north-facing slopes, Which is why Courchevel is often called the world's best ski resort.
