The way in
Mont Blanc Tunnel
- Winter rules
- Chains on board (not fitted) or winter tyres compulsory on the Italian side outside the tunnel from 15 October to 15 April; toll payable in cash or major cards only (no Telepass). ✓ checked · tunnelmb.net · tunnelmb.net
- Notes
- Main approach from the Chamonix/France side; Courmayeur is about 20 minutes' drive from La Thuile via the SS26. ✓ checked · en.wikipedia.org
SS26 della Valle d'Aosta (Pré-Saint-Didier to La Thuile)
- Winter rules
- Winter tyres or chains on board compulsory on SS26 from Pont-Saint-Martin to La Thuile (km 156.36) from 15 October to 15 April, signed on site. ✓ checked · valledaostaglocal.it
- Notes
- Usual route by van: A5 motorway from Aosta or Turin, exit at Morgex, then the SS26 through Pré-Saint-Didier and on for about 9 km to La Thuile. ✓ checked · lovevda.it
Col du Petit-Saint-Bernard / Colle del Piccolo San Bernardo
- Winter rules
- Closed to through traffic in winter; the SS26/D1090 pass road linking La Thuile to Bourg-Saint-Maurice is usually open only from May to October, so there is no van route over the top in ski season (only the ski-lift link operates). ✓ checked · en.wikipedia.org · welove2ski.com
- Notes
- In winter, skiers (not vans) cross between La Thuile and La Rosière via the lift link, not the road. ✓ checked · welove2ski.com
