French Alps - Courchevel

Fun Fun Fun.. This weeks holiday is really that. and a chance to put lots of slipping sliding and gliding together in one week.

Sites in Europe and North Africa

Courchevel is one of the most prestigious and largest ski areas in the world. It has something for everyone, English and French speaking ski schools, hundreds of miles of the best kept pistes for all standards. excellent off piste and couloirs for the adventurous, and some excellent and easy winter flying, with top to bottom flights of 5000' possible, and ski lifts to take you back up! Add to that fantastic restaurants and bars, fun nightlife, Ice Climbing, snowmobiles, Dog Sleds,Cross country skiing, ice go-karting, and some of the most stunning scenery in the Alps.. I defy anyone not to love it! If you have never been on skiis or snowboards before, this is a great place to learn, and if you think that launching your paraglider on skiis was only for 007, then let our instructors show you just how cool you can look. This could be a good week to sign off Club pilot or Pilot tasks.
