 Poster: A snowHead
|
Hi,
Looking for any recommendations for the following transfers in Feb-Mar next year, dont know if it is even possible:
- lyon to tignes (monday night)
- tignes to val disere (saturday)
- val disere to val thorens (saturday/friday night)
- val thorens to alpe dhuez (saturdat morning)
Any help greatly appreciated because I am reluctant to drive if possible.

blazzar, if it is possible, it will probably cost you a fortune, far more than any car hire would.

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

Tignes/VDI is skiable as long as you can carry your bag.
All the rest will require a combination of bus/train/taxi, won't be available at any time of the day which you might describe as 'night', and will take ages.
I think you may need to reconsider the whole driving thing. In a car the longest of those trips would only be about two and a half hours.

blazzar, welcome to Snowheads. It depends on how long between transfers - if you will be some time in each resort, transfers could be cheaper than driving, and having a car sitting round doing nothing. Tignes and Val d'Isere are very close (you can ski across if you put your stuff in a back pack) and Val D'I to Val Thorens is not far with an easy link through Bourg St Maurice or Moutiers. Val T to ADH is further, but again, you could probably find a sensible link, particularly on a Saturday when they run a lot more buses. You can find all the bus details and timetables on the internet. You usually have to book.

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

Tignes and Val D is the same resort Lespace Killy and there are in-resort ski bus services.
Tignes to Val Thoren is a long distance because one has to travel about 2/3 of the Tarentaise Valley to Moutier and then go up the winding roads first to Les Menuines and then Val T.
The Val T to Alpe D'Huez is more than half day job by car.

It's about two and a half to three hours, in fact. By public transport it would involve bus to Moutiers, train to Grenoble, bus to ADH.
