We tend to fly and the nearest airport during the ski season is Chambery (1 1/2hrs ). However, you have a choice of Geneva (2 hrs), Lyon (1 3/4hrs), Grenoble (2hrs) and Turin (2 1/2hrs).

Or simply take the snow train from London direct to Bourg-Saint-Maurice.

By road, you will travel nearly all the way on motorways or on dual carriageways (sIngle carriageway from Moutiers, which is just a 1/2hr drive from Bourg St.Maurice). The resort of Les Arcs 1800 is situated about a 15 minutes drive up the mountain from the Savoie valley town of Bourg St.Maurice. In Bourg itself, the large railway terminal for the Eurostar and the furnicular railway can be found, the latter taking you up to Les Arcs 1600 in just 7 minutes. From 1600 you can get a free ski bus up to 1800.

Once in the resort our apartment is located in the Charmettoger area where you can park your car. There is now in place a parking barrier . There is also a covered parking which costs €75 per week. Bags can be dropped off outside then leave your car for the week.

We also would advise that snow chains or winter tyres may be required!
