Getting there:

The closest airport is Geneva. Train service runs from Martigny. Then you must take a small train to Le Chable, where you can either take the cablecar to Verbier or a direct bus from the station in the winter. The drive from Geneva takes about two hours. Follow the signs to the St. Bernard Pass (home of the fa-mous St. Bernard dogs) until Sembrancher; turn left there, up the hill to Verbier.
