Courchevel Hotel map and travel info
Getting there
We give you the inside track on how to get to Courchevel including how to land on the mountain itself.
- Planes
- Chambéry airport is nearest and just under 90 minutes away. Flybe has services in the winter from Southampton, Norwich, Exeter, Birmingham, Manchester, Leeds and Newcastle (www.flybe.com). It’s about three hours to Lyon and Geneva airports. Helicopter and private plane transfers to the Courchevel Altiport are the most convenient but the landings and take-offs look quite terrifying if you ask us.
- Trains
- Eurostar operates a convenient overnight Ski Train service. It runs on Fridays and Saturdays stopping at Moûtier 30 minutes from Courchevel (www.eurostar.com).
- Automobiles
- Follow the E711 and E70 from Lyon, or the E25 and E712 from Geneva to Chambéry. Take the péage to Albertville and then the N90 dual carriageway to Moûtier. Just beyond the town the road to Courchevel climbs the mountainside in a series of tight hairpin bends.
