PARKING AND GETTING AROUND
PARKING & LOCAL BUSES
All of our properties have at least one dedicated parking space. Once you're here the town is easy to explore on foot or by bus but there are many well located public car parks should you wish to use the car.
TRAIN AND PUBLIC TRANSPORT
BY RAIL
Reach Morzine via nearby Cluses or Thonon-les-Bains, with local bus services providing the connection. Travel from London to Paris on the Eurostar and then TGV on to Geneva. The Paris to Geneva leg takes less than 4 hours.
AIRPORT TRANSFERS
Morzine is one of the most accessible resorts in Europe, with a 1h20 minute transfer time from Geneva.
Spend less time on the road and more time on the mountain. Arrive a little earlier in the day and give yourself time to sort out ski hire or get the bikes ready for the hill.
We work with several trusted partners for airport transfers.
Driving to Morzine
Driving gives you the freedom to travel at your own pace, bring everything you need and explore the wider region during your stay. It’s particularly convenient for families and guests bringing ski or bike equipment.
CROSSING FROM the UK
-
Travel via the Channel Tunnel or a cross-Channel ferry to Calais.

Travel from Portsmouth to St Malo or Caen with Brittany Ferries.
DRIVING ON THE FRENCH SIDE
-
Enjoy an 8h-10h drive on the French side, from Calais to Morzine.
-
The French motorway network is extremely fast and efficient with exceptional service stations and rest areas.
From elsewhere in Europe
-
Morzine is well connected by road: under 7 hours from Paris or Nice, 8h30 from Barcelona or Bordeaux and just 4 hours to Milan or Turin.
-
Locally, we're not far from Chamonix (1h15) and Verbier (2h10), which opens up opens for a multi-destination trip.
OVERNIGHT Stopovers
For longer journeys, consider an overnight stop rather than arriving tired. From Calais, Caen or St Malo we recommend splitting the journey in half with an overnight stay in Chablis. Read more in our journal here.
WINTER DRIVING
With a little planning, driving is a convenient way to reach Morzine and enjoy the Alps on your own terms. Please keep in mind that mountain weather can change quickly and there are several important considerations to winter driving.
-
Check conditions: Review the weather and road conditions before setting off.
-
Drive smoothly: Reduce speed on snow or ice and leave extra stopping distance.
-
Carry snow chains: Make sure they fit your vehicle and practise fitting them before you travel.
French Government Guidelines FOR WINTER
