Chambery is the next closest airport but has fewer flights than Grenoble. Lyon Airport (just over 2 hours away), and Geneva and Turin (just under 3 hours) have many more international flights. The journey from Turin involves crossing the 2000m Col du Lauteret pass. It is generally kept open in winter, but it can be very weather affected.
