Tignes Reviews by Customers

"This resort is great for intermediate and advanced skiers but not so good for beginners. There is a great combination of off piste and on piste. Lots of variety -loved it! Les Balmes accommodation was good. Try Toko snack which is next to the lift pass office for a reasonably priced lunch."

"Tignes is an excellent place to ski with loads of off piste and of course renowned pistes. Le Grande Motte is a superb run which could be managed by a confident beginner. We stayed at Club Med. This was our first time with Club Med and can thoroughly recommend it. With the euro in its current state, Club Med offers a good deal. Dining out in the resort can eat into your budget. "

Ski Holidays in Tignes, France

One of the highest ski resorts in the Alps, with guaranteed skiing virtually year round, Tignes can justifiably boast a fantastic snow record that is the envy of many resorts worldwide.Tignes skiing area is part of the vast Espace Killy ski area, with over 300kms of varied terrain, linked to the neighbouring resort of Val D’Isere. Tignes is great for all abilities, this really is a resort with something for everyone.

Tignes Ski Resort

Tignes consists of 5 different areas, all of which have access to the Tignes skiing area, but will offer a different experience during a Tignes skiing holiday. Tignes le Lavachet, Tignes Le Lac and Val Claret make up the three main stations of Tignes with Les Brevieres and Les Boisses a little lower down the valley.
The nightlife receives mixed reports, although there are more than enough busy bars, restaurants and clubs between the three stations to keep even the most avid night owls interested during their ski holiday. Tignes France also has a modern sports centre, featuring aerobics, squash and sauna, and a nearby cinema, skating rink and bowling alley.

Skiing in Tignes

The skiing in Tignes is simply vast, and with several free lifts for beginners helping the excellent local ski and snowboard schools, (particularly Evolution 2 receiving glowing reports), progression is normally quick for first timers on a Tignes skiing holiday. There are huge long sweeping runs up on the Grand Motte glacier which should be the goal for the end of the beginner’s first week skiing in Tignes. For intermediates there is a good percentage of difficult blues and reds, which are more than enough to keep even an ambitious intermediate challenged for during their Tignes skiing holiday. The trip down to Les Brevieres can be particularly enjoyable, with nice restaurants awaiting you at the bottom. Advanced skiers come back year after year to try the vast array of black pistes and endless off-piste challenges skiing in Tignes has to offer. Try Mickey’s Ears, the Fingers or the Lavachet Wall for real spine tingling vertical drops.
