Poster: A snowHead

Looking for some advice on driving from Turin to Val. I am going in feb and was hoping to drive due north from turin to Val, however I have read that the COL D’ISERAN is closed in the winter. Is this correct?
Thanks

Yes, Col d'Iseran is closed each winter.

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

yes that is a long journey, I think.
The Col du l'Iseran and Col du Petit St. Bernard are both shut. The quickest way in summer is through the Aosta Valley and then La Thuile - La Rosiere via Petit st Bernard and then up the tarentaise valley.
Quickest way I imagine would be via Bardonecchia - Modane - Arc Valley - Albertville - Tarentaise Valley.
only other alternative is
Turin - Aosta Valley - Courmayeur - Mont Blanc - Chamonix - Albertville - Tarentaise.
Why do you want to go from Turin? I think Chambery is much quicker.

Flight times from Turin suit me best around work hours so I can get out there earlier and get an extra days skiing in!

Went on a Crystal Holiday couple of years ago, Turin to La Plagne (so same area )
Quickest way I imagine would be via Bardonecchia - Modane - Arc Valley - Albertville - Tarentaise Valley
Yes I think that is the way the coach went and it took about 4 hours.

horlicks, either that or look to ski elsewhere, there are many good resorts within an easy drive of turin - such as La Thuile and Cour mayeur as have already been mentioned
