Tignes has earned itself a reputation as having some of the best skiing in the world. It’s the second highest resort in Europe ensuring fantastic conditions and is one the best resorts for early snow in the alps. A purpose built resort Tignes offers a great variety of accommodation with ski chalets, hotels and apartments to suit all budgets. The scenery is also spectacular with a huge frozen lake in the centre of the resort and stunning views of the Grand Motte glacier.
As part of the Espace Killy ski area, which is made up of Tignes and Val D’isere, it hosts a vast 300km of marked runs as well as accessible and fun off piste skiing and snow parks.
Tignes boasts fun and lively apres-ski with plenty of bars and restaurants to choose from making the resort a great holiday both on and off the slopes.
Tignes offers long wide pistes, varied terrain and some of the best lift-served off-piste skiing in the world. For the less adventurous there are free nursery slopes in resort, and an entire bowl suitable for beginner and intermediate skiers in the area between Tignes and Val d’Isère. The Espace Killy also has 2 snow parks for those wanting to get some ‘big air’!
