How to get to Val d'Isère

Plan your route to get to Val d’Isère! Your holiday in Val d’Isère is just a few months, weeks or even days away. Here you’ll find all the information you need to plan your trip.

Resort certified by Flocon Vert

 

We care about the environmental impact of visitors’ journeys to our beautiful village.

This is why we suggest you give priority to the most eco-friendly means of transport.

In addition, everything in Val d’Isère can be reached on foot and our free buses run on a regular basis, both winter and summer, to help you travel quickly and easily from one end of the resort to another. 

Coming by train

If you want to avoid the traffic jams, then the train is your ideal solution.

The nearest train station is Bourg-Saint-Maurice (40 minutes away) where there are plenty of rail services including high-speed trains (TGV, Eurostar, Thalys).

Coming by bus

The bus might be the most practical and cheapest solution, and you won’t have to worry about finding a parking space.

For a stress-free trip, book your seat now!

Coming by car Think carshare!

Both ecofriendly and economical, this is a great way to meet new people who are likely to share your passion for the mountains!

There are 4 ‘carshare’ stops in and around the village, for passenger pick-up and drop-off:

  • 1 at the bus-stop in La Daille, in the downhill direction
  • 1 at the bus station
  • 1 at the ‘rond-point des pistes’ roundabout
  • 1 at Le Fornet near the gondola lift

Stopping time at these locations is 10 minutes maximum. Parking is not allowed and the driver must be present in the vehicle.

The Haute Tarentaise local council community has joined forces with the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes regional council to provide you with a local carshare service to meet increasing travel needs, with MOV’ICI.
