Chalet Amelíe is situated in a small village called Thyon-Les Collons in the Val d’Herens region of Valais just in the mountains above the town, Sion. This is part of the well known 4 Valleys area of Switzerland.
Nearest airport is Sion but flights only currently run during the peak winter season with Swiss with a Saturday service.
Then it is a 20 min car transfer up the mountain which you can request from your chalet host with prior notice.
Geneva airport is the next closest airport with a 1hour 45 drive and you can either hire a car for the holiday.
Or take the train from inside the airport and enjoy a 2 hours scenic trip along the lake and through the valley before arriving at Sion, where a car transfer can be arranged which will be 20 minutes up to the chalet.
If you hire a car, be aware that it is a legal requirement to have snow chains.
Travelling through Switzerland is very easy and you will need buy an annual motorway toll at the Swiss border for 40 Swiss Francs.
From Sion, it is a 20 minute journey up the mountain roads and then into Thyon-Les Collons.
You will need snow chains and also be aware of the legal requirements of driving in Switzerland.
