Log in to snowHeads to make it MUCH better! Registration's totally free, of course, and makes snowHeads easier to use and to understand, gives better searching, filtering etc. as well as access to 'members only' forums, discounts and deals that U don't even know exist as a 'guest' user. (btw. 50,000+ snowHeads already know all this, making snowHeads the biggest, most active community of snow-heads in the UK, so you'll be in good company)..... When you register, you get our free weekly(-ish) snow report by email. It's rather good and not made up by tourist offices (or people that love the tourist office and want to marry it either)... We don't share your email address with anyone and we never send out any of those cheesy 'message from our partners' emails either. Anyway, snowHeads really is MUCH better when you're logged in - not least because you get to post your own messages complaining about things that annoy you like perhaps this banner which, incidentally, disappears when you log in :-)

courchevel 1550 swimming pool

 Poster: A snowHead
Poster: A snowHead
So we're off again next week but this one is very much a half day skiing and afternoon with the kids trip, so might pop along to the swimming pool in 1550 for a couple of afternoons.

Does anyone know if this pool has the daft no swimming/surf/board shorts type rule and am I going to have to lower myself to the embarrassment of putting me and the boys in Speedos?

Cheers

Yes unless it's been bulldozed to make way for the new aquatic centre.

On the road from 1550 to 1650: https://www.google.co.uk/maps/@45.41669,6.646389,3a,75y,211.52h,84.5t/data=!3m4!1e1!3m2!1sEV2aA1yvjfO_ttFTZ7DiZQ!2e0!6m1!1e1

It still shows on the Courchevel website but not much info on it: http://www.courchevel.com/summer/en/piscine-des-grandes-combes-n133-s460-a87.html

Yes - going to be stunning, state of the art complex by all accounts. Although having said that, snow/weather conditions would have to be on wrong side of grim to tempt me away from the slopes.

Quite, especially to be forced into a pair of Speedos!

Be good for families though. Though my 7 year old would probably happily stay out on the slopes all afternoon after his morning lessons. The youngest, almost 5, however will probably be keen to do other stuff in the afternoons.

@Gazzza, the old pool is a flattened pile of rubble... new one opens next year in theory.

The most popular time for the new aqua centre in Les Saisies seems to be after ski time. But there have been some complaints that the pool closing time (1930) is rather too early.

@Gazzza, Meribel pool. Not sure of opening times. Its only a 10/15 min drive from Le Praz and there is parking right outside the pool (reasonably cheap parking meter...).
