How Long is the Journey?

The duration of the shuttle journey to Chamonix depends on your starting point. From Geneva Airport, which is one of the main hubs to reach Chamonix, the journey takes around 1 hour and 15 minutes, subject to traffic conditions. For departures from Lyon Airport, the journey is longer and typically takes about 2 hours and 30 minutes. The shuttles are equipped to offer you a comfortable journey, with spacious seats and storage space for your luggage and ski equipment.

From regional train stations, such as Geneva or Saint-Gervais-les-Bains, the journey time varies between 1 hour and 1 hour 30 minutes. For those arriving by train from Paris, taking the TGV to Geneva or Lyon followed by a direct shuttle is the fastest option to reach the Chamonix valley.
