Sauze d'Oulx is a very short transfer from Oulx station (daytime journeys) or a bit further from Briancon (for overnight train journeys)

Sauze is served by two railway stations. 

For daytime journeys, you travel to Oulx station, just 10-15 minutes away; for overnight journeys, it's Briançon station, which is further away but very doable. 

In both cases, taxis and buses depart from right outside the train station, so there’s no need to wander.

Below, you’ll find information to help you plan and make your transfer.

Bus transfers from Oulx to Sauze d'Oulx

Buses depart from the car park next to Oulx station, so you exit the station and it's right there.

If there is a time gap between your train arriving/departing and the bus arriving/departing, then there is either the cafe in the station, or the one opposit where you can wait in the warm and have a drink or a bite to eat. 

At the moment, we aren't sure whether you can buy bus tickets in advance. 

This is what the how to get here page of Sauze d'Oulx tourist office says: 

'As you exit the railway station at Oulx, turn left and, at the end, you will see the bus stop. Usually there are a few buses waiting, but don’t worry if not, they will eventually turn up!

If you are getting a taxi from here to your Sauze d’Oulx accommodation, the taxi will be waiting at the front of the station.

Buying tickets onboard will cost plus 1 Euro in addition to the normal ticket fee. If you have bought a Vialattea Link ticket to Sauze, you will already have your ticket for the bus.

Most buses connect with the train services, usually 10 minutes or so after the train’s arrival except around midday.

*The final bus each day from Oulx to Sauze d’Oulx is at 19.45 (weekdays) and 19.15 (Sundays and holidays).'


Oulx station information & restaurants

If you have time while waiting for the bus or train, there is a cafe bar next to the the station, and one right opposite the station too.

The one opposite serves complimentary Italian tapas - a tradition in the region. 

You just have to buy a drink - then you can nibble away.

It's a good place to wait for your train - very relaxed, Italian ambience. 

Both serve freshly made Italian sandwiches, and the one opposite serves meals too.
