Courchevel and its surroundings
Nestled in the Massif de la Vanoise on the slopes of the Vallée de la Tarentaise, Courchevel is one of the world’s most prestigious ski resorts.
The Vallée de Saint-Bon: step back in time in the villages of La Perrière and Bozel. Immerse yourself in authentic mountain life, with houses hugging the slopes, all clad with ancient wood collected from near the ancestral chapels and church.
The Lac de Tueda: Located in the town of Les Allues, the reserve stretches from the Lac de Tuéda lake to the Glacier de Gébroulaz via the Refuge du Saut mountain refuge.
Musée des Allues: From the 18th-century Mappe Sarde map to the posters for the Winter Olympics (1992), the Musée des Allues recounts the past and present of the Beaufort cheese-making Vallée de Tarentaise.
