More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
The van climbs above the valley and the air thins to a bright, cold clarity—snow-tipped ridgelines give way to green bowls as you arrive in Courchevel, then slide down to the small, mirror-flat Lac de la Rosière. You start among the four levels of Courchevel, where timber chalets and contemporary hotels sit against raw alpine rock, then move into a quieter mood at the lake: the water dares you to slow your breathing and notice wind polishing the surface.
