Courchevel est une station de ski alpin en France. Courchevel s'étend de 1100 m à 2738 m d'altitude. Les chiffres publiés couvrent 150 km de pistes et 58 remontées mécaniques.
De début décembre à la mi/fin avril ; la saison 2026/27 est annoncée par Les 3 Vallées comme se déroulant du 4 décembre 2026 au 18 avril 2027, ce qui correspond à la fenêtre historique habituelle de la station. L'aéroport le plus proche est Chambéry (CMF), à environ 1h30 de route ; Genève (GVA) est une option plus courante pour les vols internationaux, à environ 2h30. Courchevel dispose également de son propre petit altiport (piste courte et pentue, utilisé principalement pour l'aviation légère/les hélicoptères, non desservi par des compagnies aériennes régulières). La gare principale la plus proche est Moûtiers, puis environ 25 km par la route/navette.
Les télécabines et télésièges figurent ci-dessus dans « Remontées notables ». Il s'agit ici spécifiquement de téléphériques va-et-vient à deux gares — un type de remontée distinct.
Emplacements vérifiés uniquement : la zone de la station et ses gares de téléphérique. Nous ne disposons pas de coordonnées précises pour chaque hébergement, ils ne sont donc pas indiqués sur la carte — utilisez le lien de réservation dans la barre latérale.
Ski school: ESF present in Courchevel (widely referenced by third-party ski-travel sources; could not confirm an ESF-specific page on courchevel.com itself)
Family Park terrain park on the Verdons piste (bumps, big air, rails, tables, boardercross)
Ice skating rink at the Forum building, Courchevel 1850, open year-round (afternoon sessions plus late-night Wed/Fri)
Floodlit toboggan/luge runs: ~2km Courchevel 1850 → Village run, and ~3km Moriond run with night sessions (Tue/Thu 5–7:30pm)
Courchevel Altiport (2,006m) — one of Europe's only ski-resort airstrips, kept snow-free all winter; ice-climbing wall (16m) nearby
Chaque note ci-dessous provient d'une publication officielle de la station ou d'une source indépendante.
Base altitude of 1100 m (lowest linked point, near Le Praz) and summit of 2738 m are as given on Wikipedia and cross-checked against independent ski guides; note Courchevel's famous '1850' village name refers to the altitude in metres of its main hub, not the base or summit of the ski domain.
Piste length of 150 km and lift count of 58 refer specifically to Courchevel's own local ski area (Courchevel/La Tania), not the wider Les 3 Vallées domain. This figure appears consistently across the official courchevel.com site description and independent aggregators (skipasscourchevel.com, multiple ski guides), giving good two-source agreement.
This is explicitly NOT the same as the 'Les 3 Vallées' figure of 600+ km / roughly 150-200 lifts, which covers the whole interconnected system (Courchevel, Méribel, Val Thorens, La Tania, Orelle, etc.). Marketing materials sometimes blur this distinction; resortslopes.com should always specify which scope a number refers to.
One source cited '62 lifts, including 11 free ones' for Courchevel — close to but not identical to the 58 figure; treated as a minor counting-convention discrepancy (e.g. whether free town lifts/travelators are included) and noted rather than silently resolved.
No officially published piste-km breakdown by difficulty was found (a count of routes by difficulty exists on Wikipedia — 19 beginner/35 easy/34 intermediate/8 difficult trails — but that's a trail COUNT, not a km breakdown, so left the km fields null to avoid conflating the two).
Saulire cable car capacity (130 pax/cabin) sourced from Skipedia and Chaletline coverage of the Dec 2024 reopening; both independently report the same figure.
Only found published hourly-capacity figures for 2 of 5 listed lifts (Saulire, Petit Moriond) from official/tourism sources; Verdons, Saulire Express and Biollay capacities are not published on seecourchevel.com or courchevel.com, so left null rather than estimated.
Could not independently verify well-known additional Courchevel lifts (e.g. Ariondaz, Jardin Alpin, Loze) via available official sources this session — omitted rather than guessed, so the list has 5 lifts rather than the full 5-8 range requested.
Two different tourist-office emails surfaced: 'courchevel@courchevel.com' (third-party aggregator summary) vs 'info@courchevel.com' (fetched directly from les3vallees.com's official tourist-office contact listing). Used the latter as the more directly sourced value; courchevel.com's own /en/contact/ page 404'd during this research, so this should be spot-checked if precision matters.
ESF ski school presence in Courchevel is well-established in general ski-travel literature, but a page on courchevel.com/seecourchevel.com explicitly confirming it could not be loaded this session — flagged as a judgment call rather than dropped.
Equipment shops confirmed directly from seecourchevel.com's own ski-hire partner listing plus each chain's own resort-specific site.
Webcam URL confirmed official on courchevel.com itself; seecourchevel.com and alpcourchevel.com also run independent webcam pages (Altiport, Croisette, Saulire, Signal) as alternates.
Search budget was exhausted partway through this research; remaining verification relied on WebFetch against specific URLs only, and a few plausible official-site URLs 404'd and couldn't be substituted with search.
