About Val d’Isère Ski Resort

Val d’Isère is one of the best-known ski resorts in the French Alps. Located in the Tarentaise Valley, the resort is popular with skiers and snowboarders from across Europe and beyond.

The resort forms part of the Val d’Isère–Tignes ski area, which offers a large network of slopes for all levels. Its high altitude also helps provide reliable snow conditions throughout much of the winter season.

Val d’Isère attracts a large number of visitors during peak weeks. Christmas, New Year, February school holidays and weekends can be particularly busy.

Because of its location high in the mountains, getting to the resort requires travelling through the Tarentaise Valley before making the final climb towards Val d’Isère. A private transfer allows passengers to complete this journey without worrying about driving, parking or winter road conditions.

The journey

Lyon to Val d’Isère Distance and Travel Time

Lyon Airport is around 220km from Val d’Isère. By private transfer, the journey usually takes about 2.5 to 3.75 hours.

The first part of the journey is quite easy. The route heads from Lyon towards Chambéry and then continues to Albertville. From there, the road enters the Tarentaise Valley and continues towards Moûtiers and Bourg-Saint-Maurice.

The final part of the journey is more challenging. The road climbs into the Alps before reaching Val d’Isère.

For this reason, it is better to allow extra time when travelling from Lyon Airport to Val d’Isère in winter.

Other Options

Other Transportation Options From Lyon to Val d’Isère

There are other ways to travel from Lyon to Val d’Isère, although most involve changes along the journey.

For groups, families and travellers who want a direct journey, a private transfer is often the most convenient option.

Public transport

Shared transfers

are another option. These are often cheaper than private vehicles for solo travellers or small groups. However, shared transfers can take longer because the vehicle may need to collect or drop off other passengers.
