The journey from Geneva to La Tania

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 into the Three Valleys

After Annecy, we pass Albertville on the motorway, then the small town of Moûtiers, where we begin the climb up the mountain road. We head towards Courchevel, but turn off before reaching resort, heading instead to La Tania, about 35 minutes from Moûtiers.

About La Tania

Sitting at 1,400 metres in the tree line, La Tania is part of Courchevel, so it's well linked to the rest of the Three Valleys. Because it's generally better value than larger neighbours like Méribel, it's a real gem, sitting at the bottom of some fantastic runs.

It's also the newest resort in the Three Valleys and still growing. Architect Jacques Labro originally built the village in 1990, using natural materials to blend it into the mountainside.

The village has a relaxed feel, with some lovely bars to enjoy after a day's skiing.
