• It's easy to reach the mountains using the French motorway network, and recent improvements to the road system have meant the long jams once experienced are now a thing of the past. Driving to the Alps via Chambry you can easily reach resorts such as Val d'Isere, Les Arcs and La Plagne during your second day out from the Channel Ports - the more adventurous could do it in one long stint. Or Morzine, Avoriaz and Flaine, are little more than an hour from Geneva. Use our interactive route planner to check out distance and journey times, see our en-route hotels displayed, and even the cost of motorway tolls. Take your car and enjoy the freedom to easily visit neighbouring ski areas, while being able to pack whatever you like.

• The French Alps have long been a popular skiing destination for the British. Majestic scenery, wonderful snow conditions, a long season and reasonable value have all helped to make France a firm winter sports favourite. Take advantage of our buying power to plan your winter holiday online at amazing prices. Check out the chalets and apartments, add a ferry crossing and see just how much you could save. Once you've submitted your plan we send you a contact phone number in case you'd like to talk to one of our experienced travel consultants.
