Courchevel ski resort piste map
Located in the Tarentaise Valley in the French Alps, Courchevel is part of the Three Valleys (Les 3 Vallées), the largest interconnected ski area in the world. The resort offers direct access to a vast network of pistes linking Méribel, Val Thorens and beyond, all connected through a seamless lift system. Courchevel itself spans multiple villages across the mountain, with terrain ranging from tree-lined slopes at lower altitude to high-alpine descents above 2,700 m. With the majority of slopes above 1,800 m and extensive snowmaking coverage, the resort offers consistently reliable conditions throughout the season. Alongside its extensive ski terrain and world-class lift system, Courchevel is renowned for its high-quality accommodation, including a selection of ski chalets suited to both families and groups seeking comfort and convenience on the mountain.

Understanding the Courchevel piste map
Courchevel is organised across a vertical valley structure, with the main resort levels, Saint-Bon (1,100 m), Le Praz (1,300 m), Courchevel Village (1,550 m), Courchevel Moriond (1,650 m) and Courchevel 1850, stacked along the lower centre of the map, from where the ski area rises upwards into multiple high-altitude sectors.
- Directly above Courchevel 1850, the map opens into the central Saulire sector, which acts as the main high-mountain hub. From here, lifts fan out towards key summits including Saulire (2,740 m), La Croix des Verdons (2,739 m) and Vizelle (2,660 m). This central zone is characterised by a dense concentration of red and blue pistes, alongside some of the area’s most black runs, including the Grand Couloir descending steeply from Saulire.
- To the right of the map, the terrain extends towards Courchevel Moriond (1650) and La Tania, forming a slightly more sheltered and sun-exposed sector. This area shows a higher concentration of blue and red pistes, with wide cruising runs and tree-lined descents, as well as the clearly marked L’Éclipse piste, used for World Cup racing, dropping towards Le Praz.
- To the left of the central sector, the ski area rises towards Chanrossa (2,540 m) and Roc Mugnier, where the terrain becomes more rugged and less densely developed. This part of the map shows longer red runs and more challenging routes, with fewer beginner pistes and a stronger focus on advanced skiing.
- Further across the upper left of the map, the slopes reach towards the Signal (2,250 m) and Col de Chanrossa ridgeline, marking the boundary of the Courchevel sector and providing links back across the mountain. This area appears more open and exposed, with a mix of red and black pistes.
- Across the centre of the map, slightly below the main ridge, the Verdons, Chenus and Biollay sectors form a secondary network of lifts and pistes directly above Courchevel 1850. These areas are visually dense with interconnected blue and red runs, making them key circulation zones for moving across the resort without needing to return to the valley floor.
- At the top right edge of the map, the Col de la Loze (2,304 m) marks the primary connection point towards Méribel, clearly indicated as the main crossing into the wider Three Valleys ski area.
