Location and Getting There

 

The apartment is on the 5th floor of the Relais de la Guisane - number 501. The front door giving access to the lift is number 7 Avenue Rene Froger (next to Riquet Sport). If you follow signs to the Prorel lift you will find the apartment block. We have access to a secure parking area next to the flats. There is also free on street parking or you can obtain a 7 day parking pass for the adjacent underground Prorel car park for 22 Euros.

 

  

 

Driving is always a good option, but there are alternatives........

Budget carriers Ryanair, Easyjet and Jet2 all fly to possible airports.
 
Turin - 1.25 hours transfer, Cuneo 1.5 hours, Milan - 3 hours, Nice - 4 hours, Marseille - 2 hours, Grenoble - 2 hours. Whilst Turin is the nearest (Ryanair or Easyjet) Nice is a good option in the winter as flights are cheap (not many think of going skiing via Nice !).

Briancon also has a main rail station - an overnight sleeper from Paris arriving 0830 or TGV via Vallence. The apartment is next to the lift and all the ammenities you need are within walking distance so you don't need a car.

You can get a train from Turin to Oulx then a bus to Briancon. There is bus from Grenoble but from the other airports it is probably best to hire a car.

If you are driving it is 600 miles from Calais (Autoroute for 540 miles). Follow signs for Lyon then Grenoble then Briancon. If it is snowing, an alternative route via the Frejus tunnel is recommended.
