La Clusaz
La Clusaz is a lively village in the Aravis mountains, known for its traditional character, its Reblochon cheese country and a ski area that suits families and freeriders alike. Only about an hour from Geneva Airport, it is perfect for weekends as well as week-long stays. A private car takes you straight to your chalet or hotel, without the bus change in Annecy.

Chauffeur's tipIf you are staying in Le Grand-Bornand or Saint-Jean-de-Sixt nearby, let your chauffeur know; these villages are on the same road and easy to add.
The route from Geneva Airport to La Clusaz
From the airport, your chauffeur crosses the Franco-Swiss border and takes the motorway south towards Annecy. Depending on traffic, the route continues via the Annecy area and Thônes, or via La Roche-sur-Foron and the Borne valley, into the Aravis. Both roads lead to Saint-Jean-de-Sixt, from where a short climb brings you into La Clusaz, set in a valley surrounded by limestone peaks.
Arriving in La Clusaz
La Clusaz is accessible by car, and you are dropped at your chalet, hotel or residence. The village centre, with its church and shops, sits at the foot of the slopes, and several lift departures are within walking distance. The ski area extends across several massifs, including the Beauregard plateau and the Balme sector, and the neighbouring resort of Le Grand-Bornand is only a few kilometres away. In summer, the Lac des Confins and the Aravis trails attract hikers.
Practical advice for your transfer
- On winter Saturdays, traffic around Annecy can slow the journey; leave early for your return flight.
- Declare skis and snowboards at booking; a Mercedes V-Class van carries up to 7 passengers with 10 bags.
- Child seats are available on request.
The route crosses the border, so carry your travel documents. AirportsTransfers.ch also offers a chauffeur by the hour (minimum 2 hours) for a day trip to Annecy and its lake during your stay.
