What's it like at Tignes resort?
Tignes is a high altitude resort in the heart of the ski country of France (part of the Espace Killy ski area alongside Val d'Isere) and is one of the best all-year round resorts in the Alps. Every style and ability of skier/boarder is catered for at Tignes with 300km of pisted runs and an un-rivaled amount of off-piste easily accesible from the resorts modern lift network. Off the slopes Tignes may appear somewhat drab and ugly. However, it offers everything a skier needs with restaurants and bars a plenty. Be warned though, prices in Tignes are more central London than rural France!

Visitor Reviews of Tignes
James from United Kingdom writes:
Been on holiday for 2 weeks in Tignes and came here for the DC park. You would think in 2 weeks you might find it open once.... Not so much. Utterly useless. This may be because the lift company do not invest enough money in the shaper crew and they had a comp on, but still 350 Euros for 6 day pass and this is what you get. A resort the size and reputation of Tignes should be doing better, particularly when their own website is advertising the DC park when you pay your hard earned money out for a holiday and lift pass. People don't pay thousands of quid to watch other people do the sport they're going on holiday for. Utter joke. Maybe Macron needs to get on top of this lot as well. Certainly is false advertising for the last 2 weeks.
