The Chambéry Airport to Val Cenis route in detail

The drive leaves Chambéry Airport on the A43 east up the Maurienne valley. The Maurienne is one long valley served by the A43 and the N6, and every resort road climbs off it, so the valley floor carries all of the traffic before it disperses.

Saint-Jean-de-Maurienne is where the fast road ends and the mountain section begins. The climb from there up to Val Cenis takes 30 to 45 minutes depending on conditions — a winding ascent that gains altitude the whole way, and the part of the journey where knowing the road actually matters.

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 Saint-Jean-de-Maurienne.

The climbs off the valley floor gain altitude quickly and hold snow well after the main road has been cleared. Satellite navigation will sometimes route over cols that are closed all winter — the Col de la Madeleine, Col de l’Iseran and Cormet de Roselend among them. Drivers who run these roads daily do not follow a screen into them.

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. This is enforced, not advisory. We carry chains on every winter transfer and the driver fits them when the road requires it.

Why does the route go through Saint-Jean-de-Maurienne?

Because there is no way around it. Saint-Jean-de-Maurienne is the gateway to this valley, and every vehicle heading to Val Cenis passes through it. It is also where peak-Saturday traffic concentrates.

Is the transfer private?

Yes. The vehicle is yours alone, door to door, with no shared stops and no waiting for other passengers to arrive.

What happens if my flight is delayed?

Your flight is tracked and the driver adjusts to the actual landing time, at no extra charge. You do not need to rebook or call ahead.
