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 :-)

Chamonix to Courmayeur transfers

 Poster: A snowHead
Poster: A snowHead
We`re in Chamonix next week but want to spend a day in Courmayeur (mainly so we can eat at Chiecco`s, I`m afraid).

What`s the easiest mode of transfer ?

There may be a bus but I`m also interested in private transfer companies (a bit more flexibility).

Can anyone recommend anything ?

Thanks in advance.

Haute transfer will do you a private transfer

There is a bus which is i think free if you have the mbu pass.

Can't you go via the Midi/Helbronner lifts? You'll end up in the wrong bit of Cormeyeur but there's probably a bus.

altis, FlyingStantoni, the Helbronner 3 stage cable cars were open when I was last in Courmayeur (March 2009). However, as far as I know the top station of the top lift does not meet up with the top of the Aiguille du Midi lift from Chamonix. In fact it looks a long way apart and quite a difference in altitude from the piste map.

queen bodecia, FS is referring to the bubble that runs between the top of the Helbronner and the top of the Aiguille du Midi.

It's rather an expedition to cross over without it.

I went there a couple of times three years ago. It is indeed an experience ! I don`t mind being told what to eat - provided it`s good - and it was. Very good. Anna (and her knife wielding spouse) provided some great front of house hospitality.

jonty, If you like Chiecco's try the "Cafe de l'Arve" (in the Hotel de l'Arve, oddly enough) or Munchie

I`ve had a look at where we`re staying - Cafe de L`Arve and Munchie are both within 2-3 mins walk - both get rave reviews in T.A. Very Happy

La Crèmerie http://www.lacremerieduglacier.fr/ is a good lunch time stop. A sign for it through the trees near the bottom of one of the pistes from Les Grand Montets, don't remember the exact way though.

Edit: It's off the red Pierre à Ric piste
