The Emosson Dam can be accessed by a mountain road that is open to the public during the summer season. A bus service provides the road connection between the railway station of Finhaut and the Gueulaz Pass. In addition, a set of various means of transportation (funicular, high-mountain railway and a mini-funicular /inclined elevator/) starting from Châtelard-Village takes visitors to the top of Emosson Dam.

With the actual project « Nant de Drance » and the construction taking place around the dam of Emosson, we ask you to respect and follow the signs and indication regarding the access to the dam for your own safety.

Following accesses are actually open to the public:
- Access to the top of the dam coming by the train and funicular
- Access to the dam Crest
- Trails to the Vieux Emosson; dinosaur’s footprints, Barberine, Giétroz, La Loriaz.

Following accesses are actually closed to the public (except Saturday and Sunday):
- Road to the dam Crest
- Road leading to the “Vieux Emosson” along the Emosson bank.

During the week a shuttle bus is taking you along the Emosson bank leaving from the parking lot of the Emosson Restaurant to the bottom of the road going to the “Vieux Emosson”. This is also a way to get to the trail going to the “Col de Tenneverge”.
