 Poster: A snowHead
|
Hey all, newby here 
Just wondering if anyone can shed some light on getting from Flaine to L2A over new years?
I'm doing a couple of tours and it seems pretty difficult to get from one to the other.
Your advice would be greatly appreciated.

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

RG81, then I would suggest Albertville, Motorway towards Grenoble, Rocade Sud, RN91 to Briancon. Should take no more than 4 hours by road. Unless of course you're thinking about public transport..

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

I was hoping there would be some kind of public transport but its looking like I will be hiring a car from Cluses.
Is there any reasonably cheap public transport between the 2 resorts?
Much appreciated

RG81, most public transport is cheap (certainly compared to the UK), but it could take you over a day to do that trip as there's nothing direct.

that's a tough one - car hire def the quickest. another (slim) option is to try to hitch a ride with a tour operator back to Geneva Airport, then try to find a transfer out. This would only be possible on transfer day (Saturday) and then still v risky of getting stranded in Geneva. I'd hire a car....

RG81, short of getting a lift from GVA (only Mark Warner go there from here), the trains and buses are not all that regular. It's possible but long and tedious. Best bet if you can is to rent a car as you said. Easy drive - do not use Sat Nav - it's useless round here - sends you to all sorts of fascinating places that you didn't really want to see. The latest example of this was at the PSB I believe.

Thanks heaps for the advice.
The public transport does not look easy. I think I will just get dropped off at Cluses and get a hire car to L2A.
Cheers
