La Rosiere lies on the road that climbs from Bourg-Saint-Maurice towards the Petit-Saint-Bernard pass and Italy. In the ski season the transfer from Geneva Airport goes up the Tarentaise to reach it: roughly 175 km, about three hours in good conditions. The shorter road through the Mont Blanc Tunnel and over the pass is closed in winter. Travel is private and door to door, priced per vehicle at booking.
At the airport
Your driver meets you in the terminal, then leads the way out to the vehicle. Flights are monitored, so an early or delayed arrival changes the pick-up time to match. With a French and a Swiss side to the airport, the flight number on your booking is what sends the driver to the right one.
To Bourg-Saint-Maurice, then the road towards the pass
In the ski season the route runs south from Geneva past Annecy to Albertville, then takes the N90 up the Tarentaise through Moutiers and Aime to Bourg-Saint-Maurice. Just above Bourg, at Seez, the road divides: Tignes and Val d'Isere traffic goes one way, and La Rosiere is up the other, the road towards the Petit-Saint-Bernard.
From Seez it is a long series of bends up to the resort at about 1,850 metres. With the pass beyond La Rosiere closed for the winter, there is little traffic by then apart from the resort's own, but it is still a mountain road and snow slows it; the drivers know that climb in winter.
Saturdays in the upper Tarentaise
On changeover Saturday the N90 from Albertville past Moutiers to Bourg-Saint-Maurice carries the traffic for every resort in the valley at once, and La Rosiere guests are part of that stream as far as Seez. The day is longer for the vehicle and driver, which is what the Saturday rate reflects. If you fly home on a Saturday, the pick-up will be earlier to allow for the valley.
Italy is on skis, not by road
La Rosiere faces south, so it gets plenty of sun, and its ski area crosses the border to La Thuile in Italy as the Espace San Bernardo. That link is made on skis. By road, the closed pass rules out the route through the Mont Blanc Tunnel and the Aosta valley, the shortest on the map, so every ski-season transfer comes up from Bourg-Saint-Maurice.

Price for your dateFinding the right door
La Rosiere belongs to the commune of Montvalezan, and addresses there are often written with that name rather than the resort's, so do not be surprised to see it on your rental details. Give the full address, including the residence or chalet name, and the driver goes to that door rather than to the middle of the resort. On a snowy evening after dark, that detail saves a good deal of searching.
Standard or VIP, and larger groups
Pick Standard if you are up to eight, or VIP, the higher-specification vehicle, if you are seven or fewer. A group that needs more seats than that is priced for as many vehicles as the numbers require.
Child seats, skis and boards
We fit child seats at no extra cost when you ask for them at booking and tell us the ages. Mention skis, snowboards and oversized luggage when booking too, since the load, not just the head count, decides which vehicle comes.
Planning the drive down
Your return pick-up is set by working back from the flight: the descent to Seez and Bourg-Saint-Maurice, the length of the Tarentaise, the road back past Annecy to Geneva, a margin for snow on the bends or Saturday traffic in the valley, and check-in time for skis. Book it with the outbound and the two legs are priced separately, according to the day each one falls on.
