I love that DH trail down from SM lift especially the step bits after the downed tree at halfway , abit tricky when damp mind lol
Head down the red on the right hand side down zore and then cut off to the right, there's some amazing unmarked tech trails down there. Not easy by any means and in the wet they'd be lethal but with the dust they've been working fairly well
was looking for a few like best kept secret but some where fenced off. Did see a way in mind Smile where red stops and you drop into tutti frutti theres a line there was down yesterday..

Do travellers from the UK need to fill out a Passenger Locator Form??

Not locator but need proof of vaccination or negative test, had to upload ours on eurotunnel site. Nothing needed to come home. Back home now Frown

The locator form as far as I’m aware has been scrapped. It’s was also only for return to the UK

Anyone ran the eurotunnel in the last days? Heard it’s chaos. Heading down for an overnighter in Folkestone tomorrow and then cross 26th afternoon.

If you're flying to Geneva, no, as they have dropped all restrictions there. France requires a negative PCR test if unvaccinated but you're not likely to be asked for it at the border driving from Switzerland into France, particularly if you're in a French registered transfer vehicle.

Sweet cheers for the info all!

Lads I'm meeting in Morzine on Saturday went over on the tunnel today, had an hour wait on top of normal schedule so not really chaos at all as far as I can tell.

Plan to arrive a touch earlier than you nor ally would do and I think you'll be fine.

Thanks mate appreciated. Drove past the entrance to the tunnel yesterday afternoon and zero queue. Only delays I could see was a stretch of motorway that was only open to tunnel traffic. That then opened to all traffic a few miles down the road.

I'm taking the Eurotunnel in about 2 weeks and I've been looking on with dread at the "travel chaos". Hopefully it's all sorted by then. Life is too short

Travelled over yesterday was smooth as anything. Train was delayed by one hour. No traffic at all and drove straight into the checking/waiting area.

Did meet one guy at a services in France who had been delayed 8 hours that same day. That wasn’t due to traffic though has the other 2 cars in his travelling party were on the scheduled one.

I did notice authorities had closed part of the M20 to ‘tunnel’ traffic only. This stretch had checkpoints on it. About 10 miles down the M20, traffic all merged back to normal. Very strange and I suspect that is where all the pictures were from and made it chaos themselves.

If flying its Geneva so Switzerland which I think you don't need anything. Your meant to be either vaccinated or negative test to enter France. If you haven't got either you could be turned round at French passport booths if asked and you don't have a cert.

Currently sat on the plane in Manchester awaiting departure to Geneva. Not been asked anything about jabs yet. Feel like it will be more of a border thing when we arrive. Will report back.

Also; anyone flying, would advise turning up a touch early. We arrived at the airport at 4am and was boarding the plane at 6:45ish (for a 7:05 departure). That's with no chill time. The only stop I made was a pre-flight dump.
