Our top tips:

If there is one piste side restaurant to go to make sure it’s the Bel Air. Situated at the top of the Bel Air bubble there is a huge sun terrace, great for soaking up the sun with a glass of rosé.

 

Chapelets is probably the quietest red run in Courchevel. Tree lined and with good snow conditions it’s a great run to blow those cobwebs away.

 

Those looking for some challenging off piste should hire a guide and head off to Les Aval and the Pyramides. Just remember there will be a fair amount of hiking.
