Despite the fresh air and exercise, a French ski resort is not usually the place for a healthy week away – nothing says “forget the diet” like croissants for breakfast and a white-gloved waitress wheeling a tower of butter at lunch.
“It’s not cheating, it’s balancing,” declared my lunch mate, tucking into seconds of ambrosial bread and butter at two-Michelin-starred Le Chabichou in Courchevel 1850. She had a point. And, it turns out, visiting such a gourmet address is not out of the question when searching out a healthy alternative to the traditional cheese-infused ski week.
