- Having crossed the border into France you have two options: French motorway (blue) or 'D' roads (routes departementales) via Annecy:
- View the motorway route (via Chambéry - Albertville - Moûtiers - Bourg Sainte Maurice - Séez - Sainte Foy village - Sainte Foy resort
- View the Annecy route (via Annecy Sud - Lake Annecy - Ugine - Albertville - Moûtiers - Bourg Saint Maurice - Séez - Sainte Foy village - Sainte Foy resort
- Time-wise, there isn't much between the two routes, the motorway route costs more due to tolls
- During busy periods (school holidays etc), the motorway is often the best route as it gets less congested

- Both routes bring you to Albertville, the motorway finishes just before this town
