 Poster: A snowHead

Hello, just joined Snowheads and hoping someone might be able to help. Need to travel from Courmayeur to Chatel on Sunday 19 Jan. Does anyone know a clever way that is not by car? Or is anyone doing that journey? Thanks!

Obviously A snowHead isn't a real person

Lymo, first that comes to mind is take the regular bus (if it still runs) early doors to Chamonix. Take train to Geneva main station (a pain). Get bus to Chatel (if one exists). Otherwise get to Geneva airport and get transfer from there. I don't think that Chatel transfer buses will go via Cluses. I suspect they go via Thonon.
If you have to get a transfer from the airport, get a transfer to the airport from Cham.
But I have checked none of this.

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

http://www.cg74.fr/pages/fr/menu-secondaire/informations-transports-107.html gives a lot of detail of the buses in Ht. Sav. Unfortunately from a brief scan there is not much on a Sunday. I spent what seemed like half my life trying to work out how to get Geneva airport - Chatel and return for my son last summer
I think it might be two transfers via Geneva airport which would be a pain but doable

if you can get through the tunnel and get a alpybus type transfer to geneva, from there, you can get an altibus transfer to chatel. it'll cost you though. the cheaper sat buses only run on a saturday
its a pain in the back bottom as well

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

Lymo, So... no scheduled bus from Geneva centre to Chatel that I can obviously see. I think you'll have to get yourself to Chamonix then transfer down to GVA and back up again.

You'll need to Register first of course.

Thank you so much everyone. I had looked at all the options but wondered whether anyone had a secret, magic answer. I can get on a transfer to Geneva from Courmayeur so think it will be just as easy to hire a car (and probably no more expensive)... thanks again!
