    What's the quote, oh aye, "Lightning never strikes twice". Seriously, the route is kept clear and the worst of winter will likely have passed now anyways:j

    We have worked out a route...a scenic one with one stop.

    We are driving from Zurich to a town called Martigny. This will take around 2 and a half hours. Martigny is a town at the base of the mountains, with a few museums and shops. A really beautiful town. It even has a St. Bernard museum called Barryland which is quite famous.

    From here we will use the toll road and follow signs for Etroubles to Aosta take another toll road and the tunnel to Aosta and enjoy the scenery up the mountains.

    The weathers good right now and snow chains might not be needed but if you think to take the same route YOU will still need to carry the snow chains regardless.
    This part of the journey from Martigny to our destination is around 4 and a half hours.

    If you are thinking of a scenic route, take this one as it can also bring you out close to Milan if that's close to where your going.
