Courchevel, France

The resort in the Courchevel area is huge since it consists of 4 separate resorts in 4 different villages, which are interconnected with lifts.
Courchevel is perfect for all kinds of skiers since there are non-ski activities and nursery slopes while more advanced skiers can go to adrenaline-spiking tree-lined or narrow pistes.
