A lovely descent through snow-covered meadows, taking you to see the oldest tree in the Forêt de Courchevel: the silver fir tree.
From Courchevel Tourisme, go down the stairs to reach the Vieux Moriond. After a steep descent between the houses, cross the road and follow straight on to La Corbière, amid the snow-covered meadows. In the hamlet, continue to go downhill on the trail that goes into the forest. At the first hairpin bend, you can discover the Silver Fir tree (a few metres away, on a flat ground). Back on the trail, follow your descent, pass a second hairpin turn then, on the straight section, go on a small path on the left. Follow this track until you reach a crossroad, then go right. A few turns further, you will reach the Rosière lake trail (from this point, it is possible to join the loop). Turn left to reach the former sawmill and La Jairaz (by the same road, it possible to continue this itinerary to Saint-Bon). The itinerary is easy but the snow may be hard or icy in the forest, depending on conditions.
