Arc 2000 Transfers

The four main airport gateways are Chambéry (approximately 80 miles), Geneva (approximately 130 miles), Lyon (approximately 130 miles), and Grenoble (approximately 125 miles). Chambéry is the closest, though Geneva and Lyon tend to offer more flight options from the UK. For those travelling by rail, Bourg-Saint-Maurice is the key arrival station, just 10 miles from the resort and well connected to the rest of Europe via Eurostar and TGV services.

Transfer times vary depending on your chosen hub. From Chambéry, you're looking at around 1 hour 50 minutes under normal conditions, while Geneva, Lyon, and Grenoble all come in at roughly 2 hours 45 minutes to 3 hours. The drive itself is a pleasure - the route follows the N90 through the Tarentaise Valley before climbing steeply from Bourg-Saint-Maurice, with sweeping Alpine scenery unfolding as you gain altitude.

There are three main ways to make the journey to Arc 2000, each suited to different travel styles and group sizes:

• Shared shuttles are the most budget-friendly option, particularly for solo travellers or couples. You'll share the vehicle with other guests heading to the Les Arcs area, which keeps costs down while still offering a comfortable, direct ride to the resort.
• For a greener journey, the train-and-funicular combination is hard to beat. Take the Eurostar or TGV to Bourg-Saint-Maurice, then hop on the funicular up to Arc 1600. From there, a free resort shuttle whisks you the rest of the way to Arc 2000 - a seamless and scenic route that bypasses the road entirely.
• If you'd prefer something more tailored, private transfers offer door-to-door service at your own pace. These can be arranged as a fully bespoke experience, with your vehicle, timing, and route organised around you — ideal for families with young children, large groups, or those travelling with a lot of kit.
