Courchevel 1650, a short distance from glitzier 1850, is part of Les Trois Vallées, the largest linked ski area in the world.  

Courchevel is often called the best ski resort in Europe, due to its superbly maintained ski runs and virtually queue-free lift system. With special 'Zen' areas for the novice skier or boarder, and some of the most challenging red and black runs in Europe, the Courchevel ski domain truly offers something for everyone. As the ski resort with the greatest number of Michelin-starred restaurants, it is also renowned for its fine dining.
