Courchevel è una stazione sciistica alpina in Francia. Courchevel si estende da 1100 m a 2738 m sul livello del mare. I dati pubblicati indicano 150 km di piste e 58 impianti di risalita.
Da inizio dicembre a metà/fine aprile; la stagione 2026/27 è indicata da Les 3 Vallées come compresa tra il 4 dicembre 2026 e il 18 aprile 2027, in linea con il consueto periodo storico della stazione. L'aeroporto più vicino è Chambéry (CMF), a circa 1h30 di auto; Ginevra (GVA) è un'opzione più comune per i voli internazionali, a circa 2h30. Courchevel dispone anche di un proprio piccolo altiporto (pista corta e ripida, usato principalmente per aerei leggeri/elicotteri, non un'opzione per voli di linea). La stazione ferroviaria principale più vicina è Moûtiers, seguita da circa 25 km di strada/navetta.
Cabinovie e seggiovie sono elencate sopra in "Impianti principali". Qui sono indicate specificamente le funivie a va e vieni con due stazioni — un tipo di impianto distinto.
Solo località verificate: l'area della stazione sciistica e le sue stazioni di funivia. Non disponiamo di coordinate precise per i singoli alloggi, quindi non sono indicati sulla mappa — usa il link di prenotazione nella barra laterale.
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
Ogni nota qui sotto proviene da una pubblicazione ufficiale della stazione o da una fonte indipendente.
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.
