About Tignes

With 300km of pistes across the Tignes–Val d'Isère ski area, Tignes is one of the Alps' premier ski destinations. The skiing reaches up to 3,456m on the Grande Motte glacier, offering reliable snow conditions and an outstanding variety of terrain. Cruise through tree-lined runs, tackle long descents from the glacier or test your technique on the area's famously challenging blues and reds. Beginners are well looked after too, with nine free lifts in the nursery areas so first-timers can build confidence before buying a lift pass.

The resort is made up of several villages, each with its own character. Val Claret and Le Lac are at the heart of the action, with excellent ski-in, ski-out accommodation, lively après-ski and easy access to the slopes – especially the glacier from Val Claret. For a quieter stay, Tignes 1800 and Les Brévières offer a more relaxed atmosphere, perfect for unwinding in a hotel spa or apartment after a day on the mountain. Wherever you stay, the spectacular Alpine scenery is never far away, with the frozen lake providing one of the resort's most memorable backdrops.

Away from the slopes, there's plenty to keep the adventure going. Try ice diving beneath the frozen lake for a truly unique experience, or make the most of free entry to Le Lagon aquatic centre with a six-day lift pass and enjoy the pool and waterslides. For an extra adrenaline rush, take on the Bun J Ride – a thrilling mix of ski jumping and bungee jumping that's unlike anything else in the Alps.
