How to get there

Aussois' ideal location at the border of the Vanoise National Park allows for transportation links with Grenoble, Geneva, Lyon, Turin, and Chambery. The best way to reach Aussois is from Modane, where you can take a shuttle at the bus station next to the railway (S52 Line between Morane and Sardière, more information here), or a taxi to Centre Paul Langevin, located at 24 rue du Coin, 73500, Aussois.

Due to a recent rockfall accident on the Lyon-Turin railroad (in September 2023), a part of the journey until Modane has been modified and is now covered by a shuttle service. Please find below more information on how to reach Modane:
