Courchevel
Courchevel is made up of five separate holiday resorts, all
within the Trois Vallées ski area, which also incorporates Meribel
and Val Thorens. The main resorts are named after their heights -
Courchevel 1850, 1650, 1550 and Le Praz 1300. La Tania is another,
small purpose-built holiday ski resort situated on a ridge between
Courchevel and Meribel. Courchevel 1850 is the smartest and most
expensive of the resorts; it has the best restaurants, nightlife
and access to the slopes. Courchevel 1650 and 1550 are quieter,
more suited to families, and Le Praz is a pretty village with
narrow streets, but due to its altitude has less reliable snow.
