Samoens is situated just one hour south/east from geneva - smack bang in the middle of the Portes du Soleil and Grand Massif French Alps.

DRIVING: If you fancy driving here, we're around 7-9 hours from any of the ports - Calais, cherbourg, le havre etc. Simply follow the signs for Lyon, then Geneva and on to Samoens. We can give you more in depth directions should you decide to drive!

FLYING: We offer transfers from/to Geneva airport for 50 euros. Flying the bike out here is pretty easy, just book it in when you book your flight - easy jet charge £20 each way for the bike. If you have a proper bike bag that's great, if not just nip down to the local bike shop and pick up a bike box - they have hundreds of these and will happily give you one free.

TRAIN: The Euroshuttle can be taken to Paris, and from there a train to Geneva. Again we can pick you up from Geneva train station for 50 euros return. The bike should be packed similarly to the plane. It's a great journey and there's no risk of cancelled flights!

If all that sounds like an ordeal for the bike, you can insure it through the ctc, providing cover during the flight and your stay.
