How to Get to Avoriaz | The Ultimate 2026 Travel Guide

January 28, 2026 Sergey Rabusov

Reaching Avoriaz 1800 is unique because it is one of the few entirely car-free ski resorts in the world. The primary gateway is Geneva Airport (GVA), offering the shortest transit time of approximately 1 hour 30 minutes to 2 hours. Because vehicles are prohibited within the village, all travellers must arrive at one of two designated entry points: the Prodains Express Cable Car (at the base of the cliffs) or the Plateau Welcome Centre (at the top of the mountain road). For a seamless experience, a private transfer is the recommended mode of transport, as professional drivers ensure you are dropped off precisely at the correct “Accueil” (Welcome) point for your accommodation. Once inside the resort, all transport is handled by horse-drawn sleighs, snowcats, or on foot.
