Private Transfer Moûtiers Station → Les Menuires

Here is a feature of rail travel few people allow for when booking a transfer: a train imposes no baggage allowance comparable to an airline’s. Travellers arriving by rail therefore often bring more — more cases, their own equipment rather than hired, sometimes enough for several weeks.

Why that concerns the vehicle

Because a boot fills with volume, not with people. Six travellers arriving by air and six arriving by train do not necessarily represent the same load, and the right vehicle may differ.

So on this route in particular we ask you to describe what you are bringing, not just how many of you there are. If the load exceeds one vehicle that is not a refusal: a larger vehicle, a second vehicle, a dedicated luggage van, or a combination. Our guide to skis and luggage explains what actually decides.

A resort spread across quarters

Les Menuires belongs to the commune of Les Belleville and is reached before Val Thorens. The resort spreads along the slope in successive quarters. On a short leg, going to the wrong quarter weighs proportionally heavily: the quarter, not just the resort name.

Send us your train number. We give you the exact meeting point, and a delay moves the pick-up.

What the figures on this page are worth

The distance and journey time shown are measured on the public road network, from the station forecourt to the resort’s public reference point — its tourist office — never to your accommodation. The time is free-flowing driving, excluding winter conditions: an indication, not a commitment. On a winter Saturday it is your train’s actual arrival that sets the pick-up — not an average.
