Alpe D'Huez Public Transport

Getting to Alpe d'Huez by Public Transport

Alpe d'Huez is reasonably well connected in terms of public transport.  However, if you are travelling Grenoble Airport you will first have to take a shuttle bus to the city centre (1 hour) before catching a bus to Alpe d'Huez (1'45") and as such your journey is likely to last between three to four hours including changes.

As such we strongly recommend that you use our Alpe d'Huez transfer service, which provides a far more efficient and affordable service and is able to deliver you directly to your ski accommodation in less than half the time.
