The Geneva Airport to La Chapelle-d’Abondance route in detail
The drive leaves Geneva Airport and runs east along the south shore of Lake Geneva to Thonon-les-Bains. From Thonon it follows the Dranse gorge and then the Vallée d’Abondance road through Abondance to La Chapelle-d’Abondance, at about 1,000 m. Châtel is a further 6 km up the same road.
La Chapelle-d’Abondance is one of the villages of the Portes du Soleil ski area. It is a single valley road all the way from Thonon, so a slow vehicle ahead sets the pace for everyone behind it.
Winter driving on this route
Under the Loi Montagne, vehicles travelling to French Alpine resorts must carry winter tyres or snow chains between 1 November and 31 March. This is enforced, not advisory. Our vehicles run on winter tyres with chains carried as standard, so the driver fits them where the road demands it instead of joining the queue in Abondance.
Thonon-les-Bains is where the fast road ends and the valley section begins. In fresh snow, and on peak Saturdays when the whole valley changes over, that section takes noticeably longer.

- Real-time flight tracking, with waiting time included if you land late

Private or shared transfer from Geneva to La Chapelle-d'Abondance?

Geneva to La Chapelle-d'Abondance by bus, shuttle, train or taxi
Bus and shuttle. Scheduled coaches and shared shuttle buses, where they run on this route, work to fixed timetables and stop at set points rather than at your door, so check the times against your flight.
Train. The nearest railway station to La Chapelle-d'Abondance is Thonon-les-Bains; from there you still need a bus, taxi or lift connection up to the resort.
Taxi. A Geneva to La Chapelle-d'Abondance taxi taken from the airport rank is priced on the day rather than agreed in advance. A pre-booked transfer is the same door-to-door journey with the price confirmed before you travel, from €134.
By car. With car hire you drive the mountain road yourself and need winter tyres or snow chains in season.

Not for our transfers — the vehicle is already equipped. Under the Loi Montagne, vehicles travelling to French Alpine resorts must carry winter tyres or snow chains between 1 November and 31 March.

How far is La Chapelle-d’Abondance from Châtel?

Why does the route go through Thonon-les-Bains?
Because Thonon-les-Bains is the entrance to the Vallée d’Abondance. Every vehicle heading up the valley passes through it, and it is where peak-Saturday traffic concentrates.

You choose when you book. A private vehicle (a 7-seat minivan, an 8-seat minibus or a premium minivan) is for your party only, door to door. The lowest fare is the standard or shared transfer for up to 3 passengers: also door to door, in a minivan you may share with other travellers, with a maximum of 3 stops on the route; if no other travellers book the same journey, it runs as a standard transfer for your party alone.
What happens if my flight is delayed?
