Log in to snowHeads to make it MUCH better! Registration's totally free, of course, and makes snowHeads easier to use and to understand, gives better searching, filtering etc. as well as access to 'members only' forums, discounts and deals that U don't even know exist as a 'guest' user. (btw. 50,000+ snowHeads already know all this, making snowHeads the biggest, most active community of snow-heads in the UK, so you'll be in good company)..... When you register, you get our free weekly(-ish) snow report by email. It's rather good and not made up by tourist offices (or people that love the tourist office and want to marry it either)... We don't share your email address with anyone and we never send out any of those cheesy 'message from our partners' emails either. Anyway, snowHeads really is MUCH better when you're logged in - not least because you get to post your own messages complaining about things that annoy you like perhaps this banner which, incidentally, disappears when you log in :-)

Driving from Tignes to the East Coast of Italy
 Poster: A snowHead
Poster: A snowHead

Hi All

I'm going to be driving from Tignes to the East Coast of Italy in April. I've been looking at the routes and know the St Bernard Pass will be closed but does anyone know about the route past Val D'Isere on the D902 please, taking me to the D1006? The only other way I can see is the motorway which means going all the way down past Abertville and round. Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance

Grimsby Ranger, the D902 goes through Val d'Isere then up over the Col de L'iseran Pass, above Le Fornet, which is higher than the St Bernard Pass. It's sometimes closed until early June. Hate to say it, but Albertville and the motorway is probably your only option from Tignes in April.

Wot Backcountryboarder says. if you don't believe him, look at an Espace Killy piste map. Sections of the road are a red run (la route du col), others a blue (mangard).

Grimsby Ranger, Back to Albertville, then the Turin road via the Frejus tunnel.

Thanks all for the replies, very much appreciated. I thought it might be the case of back down to Abertville but no harm in asking. Thanks again

The Col de L'iseran is the highest through pass in Europe to be precise.
