Leave the driving to the experts

All that snow doesn’t just stay on the slopes! The steep and winding roads leading up the mountainside to Courchevel have to be cleared of snow on a daily basis during the height of winter. Let a local driver from Daytrip take the wheel for your Geneva to Courchevel transfer so you can relax while driving.

Don’t be afraid to try something new

Courchevel has dozens of sports options for people of all skill levels and ages. If this is your first time on the slopes, take it easy and join a class for beginners. You’ll have an experienced professional guide you through all the steps to safely learn a new skill.

Dress in layers

Between the frigid outdoor air and the warmth of the restaurants and attractions along the way, you’ll need to dress in layers to prevent getting sick on your trip!

Driving from Geneva to Courchevel

The highways from Geneva to Moutiers are well-maintained and fairly smooth, but once you ascend up the mountain, the roads become more challenging. On the roads between Moutiers and Courchevel, the snow must be cleared daily (a small price to pay for some of the best skiing in the world!).

For your comfort and safety, we recommend hiring a local Daytrip driver for your trip. They have experience driving in snowy conditions and insider knowledge about the best detours in case of road closures or traffic. Your driver will pick you up from your address in Geneva and take you across the Alps to Courchevel. You can even be picked up from the airport! The driving time is 2 hours and 20 minutes, so visit Annecy to see the canals and have lunch!

This route starts at $70 per seat, so book yours before the busy season!

Trains and buses from Geneva to Courchevel

Using public transportation will require a few transfers, and the trip takes between 3 and 5 hours, depending on the season and weather conditions.

Train lines do not reach all the way to Courchevel due to the high elevation, but the closest train and bus stations are in Moutiers.

From either city, you’ll need to transfer trains. Train tickets cost from $22 to $37 for this entire route.

From Moutiers, you can ride the shuttle bus up the mountain. The ticket costs $12 and includes one carry-on, one piece of luggage, and one pair of skis or a snowboard. Alternatively, you can hire a taxi for $50. The drive up the mountain takes 30 minutes.
