Ski holidays by train

Travelling by train is social, scenic and reduces carbon emissions by about 90% compared to flying. By rail can relax en route with friends or family and the journey becomes part of the holiday.

Les Menuires is one of the best-connected ski resorts by train in the French Alps, with excellent train options from the UK. The nearest station is Moutiers Salins Brides-Les-Bains, located 27km from Les Menuires, about 40 minutes by bus or taxi.
