And throughout the resort you can enjoy the sculptures of Richard Orlanski. Regulars to the resort may recognise his polar bear, joined this year by Kong!
You will be able to find Kong at the top of Saulire and there are three other pieces in the ski area: a panther at Chenus and two polar bears at La Vizelle. Six other sculptures will be positioned in the town of Courchevel 1850 itself.
