Unfortunately, despite being a popular tourist destination, access to Mont d'Arbois is tricky for people with reduced mobility. How can such a popular holiday destination not be accessible? The municipality's answer: because the footpath leading to it is located a few kilometres from the village. Only shuttle buses can take them to the ski resorts. But then again, some sections are difficult for wheelchairs. So check with theTourist Office before you go.
