Ovronnaz
Ovronnaz is a family resort on a sunny shelf above the Rhône valley between Martigny and Sion, known for its thermal baths and its quiet ski area. Spa guests, hikers and families with young children choose a private car from Geneva Airport to avoid the train to Riddes or Sion and the bus up the hill, arriving directly at their hotel or chalet.

Chauffeur's tipBooked a stay at the thermal baths? Your chauffeur can drop you right at the entrance of the spa complex with your luggage.
The route via the Rhône valley
From Geneva Airport your chauffeur follows the A1 to Lausanne, then the A9 past Vevey and Montreux into the Rhône valley. After Martigny the motorway continues towards Sion; your driver leaves it near Riddes or Leytron, crosses the valley floor and climbs a winding road through vineyards and chalet hamlets to Ovronnaz. The 155 km take around 1 h 50 in normal traffic.
Arriving in Ovronnaz
The resort is spread over a south-facing slope, with chalets, apartment buildings and the thermal baths complex near the centre. Your chauffeur drops you at your hotel, chalet or the thermal baths. The ski area is well suited to families and beginners, and in summer the surrounding alpine pastures and trails attract walkers. Ovronnaz is also close to the vineyards of Leytron and Chamoson in the valley below.
Practical advice
- Declare skis at booking; the V-Class van carries up to 7 passengers and 10 bags.
- Child seats are available on request for families.
- In winter, snow on the climb from the valley can add a few minutes; your chauffeur drives a suitably equipped vehicle.
AirportsTransfers.ch tracks your flight and waits if you land late. You can also book a chauffeur by the hour, minimum 2 hours, to visit the valley's wine estates during your stay, and arrange your return to Geneva Airport when you book your arrival.

The route to Ovronnaz10
How far is Ovronnaz from Geneva Airport?
Ovronnaz is about 155 km by road from Geneva Airport. Most of the route is Swiss motorway along Lake Geneva and up the Rhône valley, followed by a winding climb through vineyards to the resort.
How long does it take to drive from Geneva Airport to Ovronnaz?
Around 1 hour 50 minutes in normal traffic. Rush hour around Lausanne or busy winter weekends in the Rhône valley can add some time to the transfer to Ovronnaz.
Which route does the chauffeur take to Ovronnaz?
Your chauffeur follows the A1 to Lausanne and the A9 past Vevey and Montreux into the Rhône valley. After Martigny the car leaves the motorway near Riddes or Leytron, crosses the valley floor and climbs to Ovronnaz.
Is there a border crossing between Geneva Airport and Ovronnaz?
No. Ovronnaz is in the canton of Valais, so the whole transfer stays in Switzerland when you leave from the Swiss sector of Geneva Airport.
What is the road up to Ovronnaz like?
From the valley floor near Leytron, a winding road climbs through vineyards and chalet hamlets to Ovronnaz. It is well maintained and taken at a steady pace, with views over the Rhône valley.

Yes, the road to Ovronnaz is open and cleared throughout winter. Fresh snow on the climb can add a few minutes, and your chauffeur drives a vehicle equipped for mountain conditions.
How busy is the drive to Ovronnaz on winter Saturdays?
On high-season Saturdays the A9 through the Chablais and Rhône valley carries heavy resort traffic, so the trip to Ovronnaz can take longer than 1 h 50. Arriving earlier in the day helps.
Can we make a stop on the way to Ovronnaz?
Yes. A coffee break by Lake Geneva, a grocery stop in Martigny or a visit to a wine estate near Leytron can be added. Mention the stop at booking for your Ovronnaz transfer.
Can I get to Ovronnaz after a late flight into Geneva?
Yes. Transfers run day and night, so a late landing is no issue. Let your hotel or chalet in Ovronnaz know your arrival time so check-in is arranged.

The Lake Geneva and Rhône valley motorway is the natural route. Depending on traffic, the chauffeur may exit at Riddes or Leytron, or approach via Chamoson, to reach the road up to Ovronnaz.
