Hundreds of kilometres of pistes, just for you
One of the reasons spring skiing in Courchevel is so great is that the resorts of the Three Valleys have started to quieten down a bit. Even during the Easter holidays, you’re guaranteed to see less lift lines than you will during the Christmas or February half term holidays. That leaves you free to explore the Three Valleys at your leisure, plus it means the pistes stay in better condition throughout the day, so it’s a win, win.

Great Snow Conditions
With so much skiable area, starting at 600m and topping out at 3,230m, spring skiing in Courchevel means you’re pretty much guaranteed good snow conditions. While lower resorts might feel the effect of the spring sun, there are lots of opportunities to stay at nice and high in the Three Valleys and enjoy everything the mountains have to offer.
Bistrot Manali – piste-side luxury and quite possibly the best terrace in Courchevel! Bistrot Manali will be open for business next winter.
Wonderful Weather
If there was ever time to enjoy long lunches and leisurely late-afternoon cocktails on the terraces of Courchevel’s amazing mountain restaurants, it’s in the spring. Warm, sunny weather and longer evenings make spring skiing in Courchevel a total delight. And don’t forget about sunny après ski down in the resorts, or evening drinks on the balcony! If you’re not skiing, the warm spring weather is also great for exploring the resort and some of its hiking trails.
