Day Ski Trips French Alps
If you are flying in to ski the French Alps and Megeve you have the following possibilities. The Chambery Airport, Geneva International Airport and Grenoble Airport are all approximately a one hour drive away. This makes Megeve a highly accessible ski destination, area even for a long weekend, from any airport in Paris or the UK. Leave Paris or the UK at 08:00 and you are on the pistes by 12:00 noon. Be aware that the above can vary depending upon traffic and weather conditions from your destination airport to Megeve.
Driving: From Geneva take the A40 direction Mont Blanc/Chamonix and turn off at Sallanches and about 17 kilometers direction Albertville, to Megeve.
Driving: In the event of bad weather: If you drive from Grenoble and Chambery, direction A 41- E712, to Annecy/Geneva/La Roche sur Foron and get on the A40 direction Mont Blanc/Chamonix and turn off at Sallanches and about 17 kilometers direction Albertville, to Megeve.
Good weather alternative: If you drive from Grenoble: A 41- E712 to the A 430 direction Albertville. Take the N212 at Albertville up the beautiful '''Gorges de Arly'' to Megeve. Please note however that this route can be closed due to rock and mud slides and traffic can be a problem!
