About getting to Val Thorens
With a nearby train station and several airports within a three hour drive, there are plenty of options for getting to Val Thorens.
Val Thorens sits at the heart of the Three Valleys, the world's largest ski area.
Chambery is the closest airport, although Geneva is probably still the airport of choice for most international visitors. You can expect transfers from Geneva to Val Thorens to take 2h45 or so.
Val Thorens doesn't have its own train station, but fast (TGV) trains from Paris and the Eurostar snow train stop at Moûtiers, which is only 35km (50 minutes) away. From there, you can catch a bus to the resort.
If you're driving, it's straightforward as far as Moûtiers. The road after that gets increasingly twisty.
So given the options, what’s the best way to get here?
