How and where to buy your ski pass
You can buy your Courchevel ski pass online and have it delivered to your home, or you can collect it from one of the ski pass offices in resort.
You can also buy your pass at any of the ski pass offices, but to get the best price we recommend you buy online at least three days in advance.
On top of the lift pass price, you’ll be asked to pay €3 for a hands-free card to use on the turnstiles. This goes for everyone, including children under five (who go free on the lifts).
Hang on to your card at the end of your holiday. You’ll be able to use it on future trips to Courchevel.
Don't forget to bring a copy of your receipt on holiday. If you lose your lift pass on the mountain, you'll need the receipt to get a replacement.
If you're coming for 10 days or more
Make sure you have a passport-sized photo for everyone in your party before you buy your lift pass.

Season dates in Courchevel
Lifts usually open around the middle of December and close in April.

Early or late season skiing
Ski passes tend to be cheapest right at the beginning and end of the season, when snow cover is less guaranteed.

Luge passes
The sledge run in Courchevel Moriond is a whopping 3km in length and has an impressive 450m of descent. Travelling under the brand new Ariondaz gondola, it zooms through tunnels, zips over bridges and flies around the bends of an insane racecourse. Children must be over five years old and those under 1.25m must be accompanied by an adult.
Three Vallées Liberté Pass
If you are a regular skier in Courchevel and the 3 Valleys, then the 3 Vallées Liberté card may be of interest to you. Anyone that skis at least eight non-consecutive days a season can benefit from the total freedom to ski whenever they want without having to pass by the ticket office each time. Payment is debited directly from your bank account after you have enjoyed your day on the slopes and you can check your account online anytime. The more you ski, the greater the reductions you can accumulate with 10% off the daily public adult rate throughout the season and 20% off the daily public every Saturday on adult 3 Valleys pass prices. Your ninth ski day is free and then each sixth day after that. This pass is only available to buy online, and there is an annual subscription fee.

Where to buy ski passes in Courchevel
There are two main ways of purchasing your Courchevel ski pass: online and in resort.
How to buy your Courchevel ski passes online – A step-by-step guide
To save time and money, you can pre-order your Courchevel ski passes online. The process is really simple:
- Click on the button below, which will take you to Courchevel's main lift pass website.
- Select the area you want to ski in (Courchevel or 3 Valleys), the duration of the passes, your first ski day and the number of people, including their ages.
- Any discounts you may be eligible for will be automatically applied to the price of your passes.
- State whether you already have a rechargeable card (in which case you'll need to insert its WTP number – see below for more information) or you don't (a €3 fee will be added for the card).
- You can also choose if you want ski insurance or not – we recommend you add it.
- Create an account with your personal details.
- Choose whether you want your ski passes to be delivered to your home address for a small fee (allow at least 10 days for delivery outside France and seven days within France), or you prefer to pick them up at one of the ski pass offices in resort.
- Pay for your ski passes.
That's it, you're all ready to hit the slopes!
How to buy your Courchevel ski passes in resort
You can also buy your pass at a lift pass office when you get to resort. If you're uncertain of the pass you need or are looking to see how the weather is before buying your pass, then this can be a good option. The lift pass office staff is also great at advising exactly which pass is best for you while some passes, such as pedestrian and beginner lift passes, are only available at the ski pass offices. Be warned, though, you may have to queue, especially at busy times.
Ski pass insurance in Courchevel
The prices on this page do not include insurance.
You’ll be given the option to add ski insurance when you buy your Courchevel or Three Valleys ski pass. This is provided by Carré Neige and normally costs around €3 a day.
You don’t have to buy insurance from the lift company, but we can’t stress enough how important it is to have a snow sports policy in place before you come skiing or snowboarding in Courchevel.
Hopefully you’ll never have an accident. But if you have to be helicoptered off the mountain, or spend any time in hospital in France, you could end up with a huge bill.

How ski passes work in Courchevel
Ski passes in Courchevel are loaded onto a rechargeable SmartMedia card, which is more or less the size of a credit card and has a chip that stores the lift pass information. This hands-free card is read remotely at the entrance of the lifts, so you just need it to put it in a pocket on your left side (many ski jackets have a special pocket on the left sleeve) and the turnstile will activate remotely as you pass through. Keep it away from your credit cards, mobile phone or other ski passes as they may obstruct the card reading. Hands-free cards cost €3 in Courchevel, and this fee is not refundable.
What is a ski pass WTP number? You can recharge and top-up your Courchevel hands-free card as many times as you want over several years. In order to do so, you need to enter the card's WTP (Wireless Transaction Protocol) number when purchasing your pass online. You can find this number on your card. After you've recharged your hands-free card in advance, you can generally go directly to the lifts without having to stop at the lift pass offices.
