Reaching Europe's highest ski resort is an incredible journey, but conquering the 2,300-metre climb requires solid preparation. In Episode 2 of Transfer to Alps, hosts Liam and Chloe tackle the complete logistical masterclass on How to Get to Val Thorens.

We break down the four gateway airports—comparing why Geneva remains the ultimate international hub despite the weekend traffic, and looking at when Chambéry, Lyon, or Grenoble make sense. If you prefer traveling by train, we explain how high-speed TGVs and Eurostar Snow services connect to Moûtiers, and how to conquer the final 38-kilometre mountain leg up through the Belleville Valley.

We also expose the real pitfalls of driving yourself: the strict winter equipment laws under Loi Montagne II, the hidden costs of mandatory resort parking with Valthoparc, and why driving a cheap hire car up nineteen steep, icy hairpins can ruin your arrival day.

Discover why a professional private or shared transfer with our team at Alps2Alps is the smartest, most cost-effective way to reach the high-altitude snow with fresh legs.
