Thanks to its prime location in the Tarentaise Valley, Peisey-Vallandry is remarkably accessible - whether you’re arriving by car or train.

🛣️ By car: Major routes such as the A43, A430, and RN90 lead you straight to the resort, making the drive smooth and scenic.

🚆 By train: The regional line from Saint-Pierre-d'Albigny to Bourg-Saint-Maurice brings you close to the slopes. From the station, paid shuttle buses run regular rotations to the snow front, perfectly timed with train arrivals.

🚖 By coach: If you're arriving in Bourg-Saint-Maurice by long-distance bus, taxis are available to complete your journey comfortably.

💡 We often travel by car during off-peak hours, but we also recommend the train for a stress-free arrival—especially on Saturdays during school holidays, when traffic can be heavy.

Under normal traffic conditions and via major highways, Peisey-Vallandry is just:

• 🕑 2 hours from Lyon-East
• 🕖 7 hours from southern Paris
• 🕓 4.5 hours from Marseille

🗺️ From Lyon

Take the A43 motorway, pass through Chambéry via the RN201 (VRU), then rejoin the A43.

🗺️ From Marseille

Head north toward Lyon. At Valence, take the A49 toward Grenoble, then switch to the A48. Drive through Grenoble and continue on the A41 until you reach southern Chambéry.

🏔️ Final Stretch to the Resort

From Chambéry, follow signs for “Tarentaise.”

• Take the A430 before Albertville
• Stay on the dual carriageway as it becomes the N90
• At Moûtiers, keep left toward Bourg-Saint-Maurice, Aime, and Haute Tarentaise
• Drive through Aime, then turn right at the Landry roundabout
• Follow signs leading up to the resort

❄️ Winter Travel Tips

In snowy months, special equipment (either winter tires, snow chains or snow snocks) is mandatory under the Mountain Law.

• We strongly recommend winter tires
• During heavy snowfall, you may be required to fit snow chains before ascending

🌄 Scenic Summer Routes

In summer, you can also reach the resort via breathtaking alpine passes:

• 🏞️ Cormet de Roselend (from Beaufort)

• 🏞️ Col du Petit-Saint-Bernard (from Pré-Saint-Didier, Italy)

• 🏞️ Col de l’Iseran (from Modane or Turin)

🚦 During heavy traffic, you MUST stay on the RN90. Secondary roads are strictly prohibited for holidaymakers and do not lead to the resort. These traffic regulations- known as RECITA (Regulation of Traffic in Tarentaise) - are enforced by local authorities to ensure safe and efficient flow through hazardous zones.

📍 Tip: As you approach Albertville, we strongly recommend disabling your GPS or at least turning off its traffic avoidance feature, which may redirect you to unauthorized roads.

To plan your journey and stay informed about road conditions, especially in winter, we recommend visiting the official Savoie road information site. Managed by the prefecture, it provides live updates alongside:

• 👮‍♂️ Police advisories

• 📢 Variable Message Signs on major highways

While driving, especially on motorways, tune in to 107.7 FM for traffic alerts and updates. You can also check:

• 🌐 APRR/AREA website (A6, A41, A43, A430, A48, A49...), the website is unfortunately only in French and its 107.7 website (also only in French)

• 🌐 If coming from Marseille or Montpellier, Vinci Autoroutes website (A7, A8, A9), only in French

• 📷 DIR Centre-Est Webcams (only in French but really easy to use),

• 📱 Savoie Prefecture updates (they'll communicate in English in case of a major event) on Twitter - X and Facebook

• 📱 APRR/AREA traffic alerts on Twitter - X

The town of Landry, located in the valley, has an SNCF train station served by all trains running between Chambéry and Bourg-Saint-Maurice. During winter weekends, TGV high-speed trains extend beyond Chambéry and stop at all stations along the route, making the Paris ↔ Landry journey in under 5 hours.

⚠️ Please note: the railway line is single-track for most of the route through Savoie.
