The journey from Geneva to La Rosière
Your Mountain Rescue driver meets you in the arrivals hall at Geneva airport.
We begin the journey on the A41 towards Annecy, a pretty town built close to Lac d'Annecy, which runs 14.6km long. Our driver follows the road close to the lakeside, one of the most beautiful parts of the journey. In daylight, you'll see the mountains rise up behind the water as we drive.
Through Albertville and up to the Italian border
Once past Lac d'Annecy, we follow the main road to Albertville, then continue towards Moûtiers and on to Bourg Saint Maurice. From there, we continue our climb through the town of Séez, towards the French-Italian border.
From Séez, it takes about 30 minutes to complete the climb to La Rosière — the most stunning part of the drive, with views up and down the Tarentaise valley and across to Les Arcs.
