The route
Up the Tarentaise to Bourg-Saint-Maurice, then the climb.
From Geneva Airport we cross into France at Bardonnex and take the motorway via Annecy and Chambéry to Albertville, then the N90 up the Tarentaise valley to Bourg-Saint-Maurice, where the mountain road to Les Arcs begins.
Les Arcs is four resorts named after their altitude — Arc 1600, 1800, 1950 and 2000 — on the same mountainside, so the address you give decides how far up the climb goes.

On the ground
Four villages on one mountainside.
Which Arc?
Arc 1800 alone has four quarters — Charvet, Chantel, Villards and Charmettoger — and Arc 1950 and 2000 sit higher still. The residence name lets the driver go straight to the right one.
Mostly car-free once there
Arc 1800 is largely pedestrian and parking is paid in winter. Arriving by minibus, the group is dropped at the residence and the car-park question never comes up.
Linked to La Plagne
Les Arcs and La Plagne form the Paradiski area, joined by the Vanoise Express cable car since 2003 — useful if part of your group is staying on the other side.
Saturdays in the Tarentaise
Most chalets change over on Saturday and the N90 is the only road up the valley; on the busiest weekends the département runs a traffic-management scheme on it. Allow extra time in both directions — a Friday or Sunday transfer is often noticeably quicker.
The other options
Train, coach or a minibus of your own.
Train and funicular
Bourg-Saint-Maurice station is at the foot of the resort, and a funicular climbs from the town to Arc 1600 in about seven minutes, with free shuttles on to the higher villages. With a group's ski bags, though, every change counts.
Scheduled coach from Geneva
In winter, coach services run from Geneva Airport to Bourg-Saint-Maurice, from where you continue by funicular or bus. For a full chalet, the minibus removes both changes.
A private minibus
It leaves when your group has landed, goes straight to your address, and costs the same whether you are 8 or 16 — which is why, for a whole chalet, it often works out close to the per-seat price of shared transport.
Flight running late?
Add your flight number at booking: the driver plans the pick-up around your actual landing time rather than the timetable.
Route FAQ
Asked about Les Arcs transfers.
How much is a transfer from Geneva Airport to Les Arcs?
CHF 1,080 one way in a Mercedes V-Class for up to 7 passengers, or CHF 1,570 in a Mercedes Sprinter for up to 19. The price is per vehicle, tolls and VAT included; card payments add 3.5 %.
How long does the drive take?
About 2 h 40 for roughly 209 km by motorway in normal traffic; allow more on peak changeover Saturdays.
Can 16 people and their skis travel in one minibus?
Yes. The Sprinter seats up to 19 passengers with up to 19 bags. Tell us how many ski bags and boot bags you carry when you book, so we send the right configuration.
Do you drive to Arc 1950 and Arc 2000?
Yes, to all four villages. Enter your exact address in the booking form and the price is calculated for it.
Do we need passports?
Les Arcs is in France, so the route crosses the Swiss–French border. Every passenger, children included, should carry a valid passport or national ID card.
Could we take the funicular instead?
You can — it runs from Bourg-Saint-Maurice to Arc 1600. For a group with luggage, being driven to the door of the residence is usually simpler.
