Skiing in Courchevel 1650: What You Need to Know

• Resort altitude: 1,650m
• Highest point: 2,738m
• Vertical drop: 1,438m
• Ski areas: Part of Les Trois Vallées, the largest ski area in the world. Includes six other resorts: Méribel, La Tania, Les Menuires, Saint-Martin-de-Belleville, Val Thorens and Orelle.
• Lifts: 180
• Pistes: 150km (600km for Les Trois Vallées: 52% beginner/intermediate, 38% advanced, 10% expert).

Best for: All levels. Easy runs close to the village, a wealth of blue and red runs, and plenty of off-piste terrain further up the mountain make Courchevel 1650 great for all abilities.

With a lift system linking the village to Méribel and Val Thorens, Courchevel 1650 is located in the eastern end of Les Trois Vallées and has sunny and forgiving slopes for beginner and intermediate skiers. Meanwhile, it also offers access to the most exciting and extensive ski area in the world for those at a more advanced level.

The slopes are wide, benefit from plenty of sun and tend to be less busy than those higher up, with fewer queues for the lifts. Being 200m lower than 1850, the quiet, tree-lined runs are a very attractive proposition and on the edge of the ski area is the Chapelets run – one of our favourites. For stronger skiers, access to the off-piste of the Chanrossa Bowl is as easy from 1650 as it is from 1850. From here, the Marmottes chairlift gives you direct access to Méribel and 1850. There's no doubt about it: our Courchevel 1650 holidays offer something for skiers of all levels.

Insider Tips for Your Ski Holiday in Courchevel 1650

Whether this is your first time skiing Courchevel 1650 or you're back for a repeat visit, check out our top tips from our ski experts:

• Find time to ski down the Indiens run, where you’ll come across some…'interesting' characters.
• I highly recommend Le Bel Air Mountain Restaurant for a lunch stop. It’s essential to reserve as it’s hugely popular, and you’ll soon see why. The food and service are excellent; it’s ski in/ski out and can be reached on foot, making it perfect for non-skiers too.
• La Casserole is a good-value lunch stop. When the sun is shining, its south-facing terrace couldn’t be a nicer place to sit.
• There's night skiing above the village on a floodlit slope each night at 7pm – if you haven’t already overdone it on the après-ski, that is!
