When the snow melts, Courchevel reveals a different kind of magic. Wildflower meadows, alpine golf, mountain biking through Les Trois Vallées, and palace hotels at summer serenity rates. The French Alps' best-kept secret — discover Courchevel in summer with VIPMAKKI.
When the snow melts, Les Trois Vallées reveals over 400km of marked hiking trails ranging from gentle meadow walks to challenging summit ascents. Alpine meadows explode with wildflowers in July. Summit trails offer panoramic views stretching to Mont Blanc on clear days. VIPMAKKI arranges private mountain guides, gourmet picnic lunches delivered by helicopter to remote alpine clearings, and hut-to-hut trekking with luggage transferred ahead so you arrive to chilled Champagne.
Courchevel transforms into one of Europe's premier mountain biking destinations each summer. The same lifts that carried skiers now carry bikes to trailheads across the valleys. Flow trails, technical descents, and electric mountain bike tours wind through forests and across alpine ridgelines. VIPMAKKI arranges private guides, premium bike rentals, and heli-biking — helicopter drop at a remote peak followed by an epic descent through terrain most riders only dream of.
The Golf de Courchevel sits at 2,000 meters with 9 holes and views that make you forget your score. At this altitude, the ball flies 15% further — enjoy the extra distance. Nearby, Méribel Golf Club offers 18 holes of pristine mountain golf. VIPMAKKI arranges tee times, premium club rentals, and helicopter transfers between courses for the ultimate alpine golf experience.
Tandem paragliding from Saulire at 2,700 meters offers an unforgettable perspective — soaring over Courchevel, Méribel, and the entire valley with Mont Blanc on the horizon. For the ultimate aerial experience, VIPMAKKI arranges private helicopter tours of Les Trois Vallées, the Vanoise National Park, and Mont Blanc itself. The Alps as you have never seen them, with Champagne waiting at landing.
Summer rates at Courchevel's palace hotels are typically 40–60% less than peak winter rates. Cheval Blanc, Les Airelles, and L'Apogée Courchevel all open for the summer season from July through August. The same suites, the same impeccable service, the same Michelin-starred restaurants — at a fraction of the cost, with none of the crowds.
Wake up to mountain views instead of ski pistes. Dine on sun-drenched terraces overlooking valleys carpeted in wildflowers. Enjoy the spa facilities, pools, and wellness offerings without winter queues. Courchevel in summer is the French Alps' best-kept luxury secret — and VIPMAKKI opens every door.
