Courchevel, France

If the thought of trails that start and stop at your door sends shivers down your spine, try Courchevel.

One of four villages in the Trois Vallees area, all connected by the world's largest cable car, the modern resort of Courchevel was designed with skiing convenience in mind.

Skiers of all levels will be thrilled by the variety and excellence of slopes available, as will those seeking an international party scene.

Globe-trotters who sunbathe on the Riviera in summer retreat here in winter, and they hang their ski hats at Le Byblos des Neiges, cousin to the celebrated and celebrity-laden Byblos hotel in St. Tropez.

A cozier but equally deluxe hotel choice: Les Airelles. Hotel Trois Vallees (check rates now) is close to fine restaurants and features oversize bathtubs to relax ski-weary bones.
