Above all, Courchevel owes its great success to its ski domain. The credit must go to Jean Blanc, Emilie Allais and Jeannot Cattelin who knew where to trace the best ski runs, what advice to give regarding the equipment and how to maintain a ski domain throughout the year.
To this formidable daily task, today you must add, even with the sufficient snowfall, the power of 523 artificial snow machines. This makes Courchevel the best equipped ski station in the world for artificial snow.

There are 600 kilometres of ski runs and 185 mechanical ski lifts that criss-cross the mountains and the different elevations. From Meribel to the Belleville valley, the ski runs are all well marked and all have immaculate snow for the best skiing and excitement. At Courchevel, the snow is always irreproachable thanks to a very favourable climate.
