Getting to the slopes, and getting here

The free ski bus stops 200m from the front door, about two minutes' walk. It runs directly to the Chantemerle telecabine, which opens up Serre Chevalier's 250km of pistes.

Turin is the closest airport, around 1 hr 25 by road, and Geneva is around 2 hr 45. Snow Cab, our own transfer service, can collect you from either.

Private door-to-piste shuttle

For an added fee, a driver collects your group from the chalet each morning and brings you back at the end of the ski day, skis and boots included. The shuttle runs every day except Saturday throughout the winter season. Chantemerle is the usual drop-off, and other sectors of the valley can be arranged.
