The valley lies just an hour from Geneva airport, with its low-cost and regular airlines flying from all over the UK and the rest of Europe (we can arrange your minibus transfers from the airport). It is linked by rail to both the French and Swiss networks. And it's about 8-9 hours' drive by autoroute from Calais.
