A must-see exhibition
Created in 2009, every year "L'Art au sommet" takes over the slopes and center of Courchevel, one of the most prestigious ski resorts in the Alps.
Over the years, locals and tourists alike have become attached to this traditional event, whose aim is to showcase artists from a variety of backgrounds in an atypical, majestic setting.
In addition to discovering the works for yourself during your stay, guided tours are also available. A walking tour to better understand the world of the guest artist and the cultural dimension of the exhibition.
