Oz-en-Oisans
Oz-en-Oisans, and its ski station Oz 3300, is a gateway to the Alpe d'Huez Grand Domaine, with fast lifts climbing straight into the heart of the ski area. Its residences sit right on the slopes, which makes it popular with families wanting ski-in, ski-out stays. A private car brings you from Geneva directly to your residence, with skis and luggage handled in one go.

Chauffeur's tipThe resort (Oz 3300) is above the old village of Oz; tell us which one you are heading to so the chauffeur takes the right road.
The route from Geneva Airport
After crossing into France, your chauffeur takes the A41 south through Annecy and Chambéry to Grenoble, then the A480 and the road up the Romanche valley. Before Bourg-d'Oisans, the car turns into the Eau d'Olle valley via Allemont and climbs the mountain road to Oz-en-Oisans. The trip takes about two hours twenty in normal conditions.
Arriving in Oz-en-Oisans
Oz 3300 is a compact, car-light station at the foot of the lifts, with residences and chalets close to the pistes. From here, the gondola reaches the Alpe d'Huez area quickly, while Vaujany is linked on the slopes. The old village of Oz, lower down, has a more traditional character. Your driver takes you right to your residence, saving a walk with suitcases through the snow. With AirportsTransfers.ch you can also book transfers to Alpe d'Huez or Grenoble during your stay.
Practical advice
Families with skis and several bags are most comfortable in the Mercedes V-Class, which seats up to 7 passengers with 10 bags. Couples may prefer the E-Class sedan or the S-Class for extra comfort. Declare your skis and request child seats when booking. Saturday is changeover day across the Oisans, so the Romanche valley can be busy in the afternoon. Your flight is tracked and waiting time is included if it is delayed, and your return trip can be booked in the same order.
