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

Phin from United Kingdom writes:

I don't get these recent reviews. Where are all the ancient drag lifts referred to. To my knowledge there is a drag in Breviere on the beginners slope (quite appropriate), and if I recall a drag in Lac up the beginners slope. Plus I think a couple of others out of the top of Val Claret. There are, however, a huge number of high speed lifts elsewhere. I would agree that the lifts out of Breviere are not that good. Bubble ok but then you are either onto horribly long chair up to 'eye of the needle' or equally slow but slightly less long to get to Le Lac. These are the ones that need replacing.
