Airport TransfersEvery Saturday we run a minibus and trailer to Geneva, typically arriving at 10am and leaving again at 4pm. The cost for this transfer is £30 each way. If you can not fly into Geneva then we can arrange for transfers from other airports, but the cost is likely to be higher, particularly for smaller groups and individuals. There are a few airports serving Les Arcs (Geneva | Lyon | Grenoble) all with reasonable transfer times to The Mountain Bike Chalet. The most popular airport is Geneva, 2.5 hours away. Lyon airport is just under 3 hours away. The Lyon Airport web site is quite helpful and lists the airlines serving it.
