Short Family Walks in Courchevel

featured in Hiking & Walking Routes Updated 12 June 2025

The walks suggested in the gentle walks section are also great for families with young children, and with many of the trails within walking distance, or a short bus journey, from the centre of the resort you can head for a stroll around any number of them.

It's always worth noting that for younger children back packs with water and snacks are a great idea as some of the routes may have no refreshment stops during the walk.

Below are some of the routes that are family friendly.

Walk 1 - Chemin decouverte des Verdons
