Transport
By train
you have the choice to stop in France or in Switzerland
In France: Thonon les Bains with a link with buses to Châtel (or taxis); 45 mn to Châtel .
Evian les Bains: Taxis only; 45 mn (85€)
In Switzerland: Aigle is the closest railway station, 25 mn to Châtel, via le Pas-de-Morgins, but taxis only (60€)
By plane
Geneva Airport (French side!) and then you can :
– rent a car
– take a FRENCH taxi from Geneva to Chatel (120-140€!). I recommend Taxi Gagneux 00 33 04 50 73 02 83 or voyages.gagneux@gmail.com
Beware! Do not take a Swiss Taxi from the Airport (swiss side): 300€!!!!
– take a train to Aigle via Lausanne (certainly the cheapest way from Geneva airport) or to Thonon les Bains and then a taxi Gagneux…
Useful information
The City of Châtel provides a tremendous shuttle service so there is no need of a car.
