The Geneva Airport to Montgenèvre route in detail

The drive leaves Geneva Airport on the A41 and A43 south through the Maurienne, then the Fréjus tunnel. On the Italian side the road drops down the Susa valley to Oulx and turns back up through Cesana Torinese and Clavière to the border, with Montgenèvre a short distance beyond it on the French side of the pass. Briançon, another twelve kilometres down the far side, is the hub for the whole Briançonnais.

Cesana Torinese is where the fast road ends and the mountain section begins. The climb from there up to Montgenèvre takes 15 to 30 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.

The winter routing crosses into Italy through the Fréjus tunnel and returns to France over the Montgenèvre pass, because the direct French road over the Col du Galibier is closed from late October until late May. Carry a passport or national ID card. The tunnel toll is included in the price quoted.

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 on the Montgenèvre approach.

The Montgenèvre pass is kept open through the winter and is the last climb of the journey, but at 1,860 m it slows to a crawl in heavy snowfall. The Col du Galibier, the direct French road from the Maurienne, is shut from late October until late May, which is why the route goes round through Italy. 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.

Private or shared transfer from Geneva to Montgenèvre?

We offer both. The standard or shared transfer is the lowest fare: it is for parties of up to 3 passengers, runs door to door, and you may share the minivan 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); under our terms the airport pick-up for a shared transfer may take place up to two hours after the scheduled time. A private transfer is a vehicle for your party only: it leaves when you have landed and stops only at your door, from €313 for a 7-seat minivan and from €336 for an 8-seat minibus, which works out at from €42.00 each when eight travel together.

Geneva to Montgenèvre 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 Montgenèvre is Briançon; from there you still need a bus, taxi or lift connection up to the resort.

Taxi. A Geneva to Montgenèvre 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 €292.

By car. With car hire you drive the mountain road yourself and need winter tyres or snow chains in season.

Do I need snow chains for a transfer to Montgenèvre?

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 over the Montgenèvre pass?

Because in winter there is no direct French road. The Col du Galibier out of the Maurienne is closed from late October until late May, so the transfer runs through the Fréjus tunnel and approaches the resort from the Italian side. The final climb from Cesana Torinese is where peak-Saturday traffic concentrates.

Does this transfer cross into Italy?

Yes, for part of the way. The direct French road over the Col du Galibier is closed from late October until late May, so the winter route runs through the Fréjus tunnel and re-enters France at Montgenèvre. Bring a passport or national ID card. The tunnel toll is included in the price quoted.

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.
