A Courchevel ski pass for the 2026-2027 season costs €385 (Courchevel Valley only, 6 days, adult) or €421 (Three Valleys, 6 days, adult). The difference between the two is just €36, the smallest gap in years, and for most people who fly to Courchevel for a week the Three Valleys pass is the obvious choice. Here's how to decide.

Understanding Your Ski Pass Options

Choosing the right ski pass for your Courchevel holiday can significantly impact both your skiing experience and your budget. The resort offers several options, from Courchevel-only passes to the full Three Valleys experience encompassing 600km of interconnected pistes.

One thing worth weighing before you buy. The pass costs the same wherever you sleep, but the walk to the lift does not. Guests in a ski-in ski-out property get an extra run or two out of every morning, which over a week is a real difference for the same lift ticket.
