Summer's here in Courchevel



Courchevel prides itself with some of the most breath taking scenery in the Alps. Take it all in at your leisure with a host of outdoor activities for you and your family. Why not explore France's first National Park - La Vanoise National Park? With its beautiful mountain lakes and a variety of walking trails catering to all levels, pack a picnic and enjoy the spectacular views of waterfalls, mountain peaks and meadows as you relax with your lunch.

Fancy something more adventurous? Mountain biking and paragliding are main attractions to the region through the summer months.            

Many ski shops become bike shops from July, and once you master getting your bike on and off the chairlifts, then the area has various downhill descents (no pedalling needed!) to get your adrenaline going.

To get the best bird's eye views, take to the skies and gently glide through the mountains. Fly tandem with an instructor and discover what it's like to be airborne above one of the most beautiful mountain ranges in the world.

Also coming up in July, look out for FĂȘte de la Musique in June - a music events that takes over the streets and bars of the area on the Summer Solstice; The Three Valleys Mountain Bike competition in early July; and for the younger of us, there's the Teenage Games - varied competitions include archery, football, races and much more.

After a day's activities, relax in your mountain retreat, and let Chalet Pearl take care of your every need as you enjoy the comfort of your luxury surroundings. Wind down in the steam room or jacuzzi before enjoying true fine dining prepared for you by your personal Michelin star chef, finishing with a digestif on your balcony or in front of an open fireplace. What more could you possibly ask for?
