Coursegoules (Occitan: Corsegolas) is a commune in the Alpes-Maritimes department in southeastern France. Its inhabitants are called the Coursegoulois.
In 2010, the commune had 473 inhabitants. The historical population is available from censuses conducted there since 1793. Starting in the twenty-first century, the actual census of municipalities with fewer than 10,000 inhabitants are held every five years, unlike larger municipalities that have a sample survey each year.
The singer Camille, in her album Ilo Veyou (2012), dedicated her song Le Berger to Coursegoules.
