The same color, but different emotions, the Combe de la Saulire ski slope is a must-see during your stay in Courchevel 1850.
For 3 km, you'll alternate between gentle and steady slopes for a pleasure that can be enjoyed on skis or snowboard. It's an opportunity not only to descend 700 m in altitude, but also to explore the western part of the resort.

3/ The black ski slope of the Grand Couloir
Never groomed, the Grand Couloir run is one of the resort's Ski & Challenge zones. A veritable high-mountain mogul wall, accessed via a narrow ridge. While this itinerary is aimed at the most daring and seasoned skiers, it promises breathtaking sensations.
With its exceptional views and technical route, we invite the curious expert to take the plunge into this vertiginous couloir for an unparalleled experience.
Continuing your descent, you can also ski the Jean-Blanc black ski slope, which starts at the top of the Plantrey chairlift.
Named after one of the founders of the Courchevel resort, this narrow, winding ski slope is a former World Cup descent, and will not only get you to Le Praz, but also, and above all, prolong the pleasure of your day on the slopes!
