In addition, we provide some information below, but check your email inbox for an email we sent to the participants with more detailed information.


Arrival Day

On Sunday, April the 20th participante can check in ONLY from 3 pm on.

The cars are required to be parked in the UPPER parking lot.

Shuttle from Geneva Airport

The Les Houches School of Physics recommends that participants arriving at Geneva Airport uses the shuttle service that will take you directly to the School venue:


Participants should make their own reservation (we advise you to book a round trip).

In our Facebook group participants are already organising groups to make the reservations.

IMPORTANT: The Alpybus company often doesn't want to drive up to the École de Physique and will drop people at the center of the village which is quite far from the School site.

port clothes for cold and wet weather are the best choice.
