Awesome domain to ski or indeed to visit. Splendid, superbly situated and well managed. All the elements for a perfect stay. Les Menuires to Geneva International Airport is 193 km by highway from Albertville. Journey time approximately 2h20 min. If you follow the national road to Annecy south or north entrance you have 147 km and 2h15 journey times. Saturdays are the heaviest days of circulation on both. Snowy conditions, slower traveling speed, highway tunnel regulation, accidents and temporary road closures can all add to traveling congestion and journey time. It is imperative to allow for sufficient time to arrive at Geneva airport.
