Limone Piemonte
Limone Piemonte is a historic ski resort in the Maritime Alps south of Cuneo, close to the Col de Tende and only a short distance from the Mediterranean. Its Riserva Bianca ski area attracts families and skiers from Piedmont and the Riviera. Given the length of the trip from Geneva, a private car is the most comfortable way to arrive, without train changes in Turin or Cuneo.

Chauffeur's tipThis is a long transfer: plan a comfort stop on the Piedmont plain and keep snacks and water handy for children in the car.
The route from Geneva Airport
Your chauffeur heads into France on the A41 to Chambéry, then up the Maurienne valley on the A43 to the Fréjus Road Tunnel. In Italy, the motorway descends the Susa valley towards Turin, then the route runs south across the Piedmont plain towards Cuneo. From Cuneo, the road follows the Vermenagna valley via Borgo San Dalmazzo up to Limone Piemonte. Allow around four and a half hours in normal conditions.
Arriving in Limone Piemonte
Limone is a traditional village with a pedestrian historic centre, stone houses and a parish church, surrounded by the slopes of the Riserva Bianca. The ski area spreads over several sectors on both sides of the valley, with views that can reach the sea on clear days. Your driver takes you as close as possible to your hotel or apartment, as some lanes in the centre are closed to cars. AirportsTransfers.ch can also arrange onward transfers to Cuneo, Turin or the Riviera.
Practical advice
On a trip of this length, space and comfort matter: the Mercedes V-Class seats up to 7 passengers with 10 bags and skis, and the S-Class First Class sedan is ideal for couples. Declare skis at booking and request child seats if needed. The route crosses the Swiss–French and French–Italian borders, so keep your documents with you. Your flight is tracked and waiting time is included if it is late, and an early flight lets you arrive before dark in mid-winter.
