Ski Holidays in Tignes

Tignes is somewhere you can ski longer, higher and further than most other resorts in the Alps. Owing its snow-reliability to the Grande Motte glacier, the local ski area is joined with Val d’Isere’s to form the mammoth Espace Killy - intermediates will have a whale of a time here. Choose between 5 different villages, whether your priority is convenience, cosiness or cheap accommodation. Tignes also has one of the most famous New Year parties in the Alps.

Tignes ski resort (pronounce it 'Teens') is one half of the stunning Espace Killy, one of the biggest linked ski areas in France. Because of its high-altitude terrain and access to the Grande Motte glacier, the resort is open both earlier and later in the season than many others and often the lifts are running for short periods of summer skiing.

Predominantly purpose built, the resort itself is divided into 5 villages, each different in its own way but all well linked by lifts and bus services.

The main area, currently being rebranded as Tignes 2100, is made up of Le Lac, Le Lavachet and Val Claret, all at around 2100m altitude. Le Lac is the central bit, where you not only have the convenience of the main lift system pretty much at your doorstep, but also some gorgeous views across the lake. Party lovers will find the best nightlife at Val Claret, which is also near the glacier if you're holidaying here at the very beginning or end of the season. Le Lavachet is cosier and quieter (often cheaper too as the slopes take longer to get to). Lower down at 1850m is quieter Les Boisses and at 1550m you'll find classic alpine village charm at Les Brévières.

The local pistes alone stretch to an impressive 150km, served by a fast and reliable lift system. Somewhere to definitely seek out in clear weather conditions is ‘the eye of the needle' - one of the natural wonders of the ski-travel world.

Besides the 150km of local slopes, there's plenty more to ski if you want to. With Val d'Isere, this is part of the Espace Killy (named after triple-gold winning Olympic skier Jean Claude Killy). Get the whole-area lift pass for 300km of fantastically conditioned slopes – if you’re not sure whether you’ll need the extra miles, there’s always the option to upgrade in resort as and when you want to.

What is Tignes like for Beginner skiers?

Beginners can practice on the nursery slopes at Le Lac and Le Lavachet, where you'll find gentle, quiet runs that are accessible via free beginners' lifts. Le Bollin at Val Claret is another conveniently situated green and Grattalu is a lovely wide blue for those wanting to build confidence. Blue piste skiers have the run of the mountain, with the Sommarel streaming down from one of the highest spots, served by the Sommarel chair. Link it with Aurouze for an all-blue full valley descent. The Festoure run leads over to La Joue du Loup, where more beautiful blues await.

What is Tignes like for Intermediate skiers?

Tignes is incredible if you ski at an intermediate level, with miles of powdery blue and red runs including the now famous Genepy and Double M. Its main USP is arguably the presence of the striking Grande Motte glacier. With 20km of snow-sure trails, it provides some of the world's best runs for confident intermediates pretty much all year round and virtually guarantees great conditions throughout the winter.

What is Tignes like for Advanced skiers?

Advanced snow lovers should also try the steep moguls at Toviere and Solaise or the 10k La Sache.

What is Tignes like for snowboarding?

Tignes comes very highly recommended by the snowboarders here at Sno, who enjoy its long, wide pistes. There's a great Boardercool area and a mini boardercross (with airbag) at the Gliss' park as well as challenging bends, whoops and curves on Tignes' 1400m boardercross.

The Swatch Snowpark, with an airbag, rails and good jumps for beginners and intermediates has a very cool "shoot my ride", where your performance is filmed and can be watched back. You can practice freestyling at high altitude during the summer in the Glacier Snowpark, and there's also an XXL halfpipe (one of the best in France) that features in the Winter X Games.

What is Tignes like for off-piste skiing?

A big attraction for Experts is the abundance of off-piste terrain, much of which is lift-served.

There's loads of quality freeriding terrain – including 9 safe but ungroomed areas called ‘Naturides', where all abilities can practice and perfect their freeriding in a safe environment.

What is Tignes like for cross country skiing?

There is about 20km of cross -country trails in Tignes, most on or around the lake at the base of the ski area. No pass needed. More trails in Val d'Isere, although you will need a pass to get over to that part of the ski domain.

Tignes Après Ski

While it's said that those who appreciate Tignes do so for the serious skiing over the après ski, this doesn't do justice to the fact that Tignes' 60+ bars/pubs and 4 night clubs provide some of the best nightlife in the Alps. All villages have their fair share of places to eat and drink, and with a shuttle bus service running 24 hours, you can enjoy your evening without worrying about the journey back. Jam bar is small but with a great atmosphere and Loop bar pretty much offers it all: with live sport, world class DJ's and well-known comedians as well as great food.

Best Time to Visit Tignes

Thanks to the Grande Motte glacier, the winter season in Tignes lasts longer than most other resorts. You can often ride the glacier from the end of September and enjoy excellent snow through to mid-May, but the main Tignes ski holiday season runs, like the rest of the ski world, from early December until mid or late April. You can also get on the glacier in the summer (June – September), where lifts provide access until 1:30pm.

In terms of snow quality, Tignes is a tough resort to beat – with its' high altitude, excellent snowfall and the presence of the Grande Motte glacier, the Espace Killy is considered one of the Alps' most snow sure ski holiday destinations. While nature does an admirable job of maintaining the powdery pistes, excellent grooming technology and more than 300 snow cannons also serve to ensure you enjoy slopes of the highest quality. The slopes face N,S,E & W, which means that whatever time of day or year you're out, you can find sunny pistes to enjoy all day long.

If you prefer avoid hustle and bustle on the slopes, book outside the peak weeks of Christmas and February half term where a cheerful clamour of families head to Tignes during school holidays, and when hedonists hit the resort to party at New Year. At Sno we like it busy and exciting, so those are actually our favourite times to ski Tignes!

What's Tignes like at Christmas?

If you're dreaming of a white Christmas, a Christmas in Tignes will be one to remember. Father Christmas usually makes an appearance on Christmas Eve as well as the day itself, and there's a festive market, Christmas ice disco and spectacular torch-lit display. With the snow-covered surroundings and festive activities, the whole resort is buzzes with an infectious festive spirit.
Christmas Ski Holidays

What's Tignes like in the New Year?

There’s always something big going on over New Year in Tignes, from the legendary ‘Fire Mix Party’ of recent seasons (past DJ’s include David Guetta) to performances by the spectacular Eloize Circus.
New Year Ski Holidays

What's Tignes like in Half-Term?

Even during February half term, when Tignes is a popular destination for families looking to make the most of their week off, queues are reportedly short, and with the huge Espace Killy area to ski, you'll be able to find quieter slopes if that suits your needs.
Half Term Ski Holidays

What's Tignes like at Easter?

Because of its snow-reliability, those who spend Easter in Tignes are rarely disappointed by the condition of slopes, and can enjoy a good dose of sunshine too. With organised events like street theatre and Egg hunt, Easter in Tignes is an enjoyable holiday for all, and one of the more snow-sure ski holidays when booking a late-season trip.

We had a fabulous week. We hadn’t skied in Tignes before but we’ve done a lot of skiing and always had a negative perspective of purpose built resorts – we loved it and all said we would go back! We didn’t spend much time on the local slopes and mainly went straight up and over towards Val d’Isere. We skie... + more

I’d definitely recommend Tignes to other snowboarders. We had difficult conditions as it was technically early in the season so the runs were pretty hard work in some cases, and some were closed. However it was still really good to be there and we found lots of places to go. I’m sure later in the season is mu... + more

Really liked Tignes, found some slopes on the second half of the week that we wished we had found earlier, but that’s typical! It’s a good resort for beginners, and all levels – a real all rounder with something for everyone. There didn’t seem to be a lot going on in Le Lac over Christmas, the main entertai... + more

We had really bad weather the week we were here, but still managed to get out every day. We found quite a few other things to do, like walking and ice diving and going to bars etc. + more

Awesome! We only had one or two bad days, the rest was glorious weather. I stayed in Val d’Isere/Le Fornet last year and it was nice to explore from the other side. You can get across to all the ends of the area so there’s lots to do, like jump on a lift easily and head off for the day - it’s definitely good... + more

Tignes was a bit too hot in the second half of April, but we had a great time. We usually ski in the Portes du Soleil and stay in Chatel and Morzine, but decided to have a change. Tignes isn’t as pretty but in general it is a well thought out resort. The skiing is great for every level from beginner to advance... + more

I’m 72 and have been going to Tignes for 16 or 17 years now. I would recommend it to anyone who loves skiing. Val Claret up at 2000m is in the centre, and there are so many varied runs of all abilities. Outside the Borsat and Tommeuses Apartments there’s a children’s area and a nice free slope. 1800 has some... + more

Absolutely great time in Tignes. The kids had lessons with New Generation and got on very well. I’ve been to Tignes three times now, what more can I say?! It’s a great, family orientated resort. + more
The Ellis Family,

Such a good resort with lots of opportunity for skiing – the whole reason we chose it is because it’s quite high and has good snow in April, and most of the pistes were still open. We are intermediate / advanced skiers and there’s something for everyone with runs of all colours. + more

It’s a 60’s resort with apartment blocks, you can’t get away from that! But if you’re here to ski it’s brilliant. I’d definitely say that it’s an intermediate resort. I recommend Tignes and the Chalet Hotel L’Ecrin to everyone – just pray for snow! + more
David,

We were very lucky to have both good snow and good sunshine in April in Tignes. Having stayed the year before in La Plagne, Tignes is easier to get around and looks nicer being in a bowl. It seemed to suit all levels of skier and be great for skiers and non-skiers alike. + more

My advice if you haven’t been to Tignes before is to get your board and go! I want to go again! I’ve been to Tignes a few times are really like it. There are plenty of slopes and there’s always somewhere quiet to find if you look for it. I would say that the resort is good for all levels. Last time I was ... + more

Tignes is excellent, I would definitely recommend it if you want a wee bit of adventure. It’s pretty much directly linked to the slopes which is really handy for getting to most places, and across to Val d’Isere etc. One of the links is a black run back which is usually full of people who’ve had more to drin... + more

Weather was good and we all liked Tignes – I’m not a skier but my son and his friends enjoyed the Espace Killy and there was plenty for my wife and I to do around the resort. There’s a lovely restaurant called La Ferme which we were recommended and the food there is absolutely super. We went to the wine bar ... + more

I liked Tignes very much. It doesn’t have as much character as some places we’ve been to but the skiing is very good – we covered a lot of the area and went over to Val d’Isere. One thing I noticed was that in the supermarkets, things were a similar price to what you find at home, so you didn't end up payin... + more

Tignes is a lovely resort and we had brilliant snow, too much snow at the top so some of the runs were closed! We still managed to ride all over the area and go over to Val d’Isere which was great – there’s all sorts for skiers and boarders (we were two intermediate snowboarders). In terms of the town, we we... + more
Karen,

I’ve been to Tignes a few times; the Tignes and Val d’Isere pass is just fantastic. If you like skiing lots of different areas the area is vast, with really nice easier runs, lots of medium runs and harder ones to test you. We skied here in January when you don’t always know what you’re going to get with ... + more

I had never been to Tignes before but was very impressed. It’s easy to reach one end of the resort from the other and the snow and everything was perfect.

A no nonsense purpose built ski resort, snow-sure, with skiing way up on the Grande Motte Glacier. You have a huge ski area here, it’s my favourite just for the huge variety on offer, from the snowpark, the easy blues to the off-piste. The nightlife here is best served by the Le Couloir bar, where there are ... + more

the hgiest village, Val Claret, has loads of different apartment blocks. most of them are okay, especially the two Grand Tichot towers, but try to stay in one thats central to the village as you're near the shops bars and restaurants and still have easy lift access.

1st time to Tignes, my other half hadn’t skied before and it was pretty tough for her – the Val d’Isere and Tignes area is pretty much for intermediates and more confident skiers.

Hadn’t been here before but it’s a good resort, there’s loads of skiing but unfortunately the weather was awful - too windy and snowy which was very strange for the time of year (end of March!).

We had loads of snow and the sun came out, so it was a lovely week. There’s loads to ski in Tignes, it goes all the way from Les Brevieres to the other side of Val d’Isere. Unlike the 3 Valleys, where by time you reach the next valley you have to ski back, here you can get across quite quickly, which gives ... + more

We had a great week away, I can’t complain about anything in Tignes. We were staying in Val Claret which is so much easier for getting to Val d’Isere, just take one lift and you’re up. The Folie Douce is over there so we got to enjoy a bit of après and the nightlife in Tignes is really good – we went out e... + more

I did a season here in 2014/5. Its a great place to ski, the palafour run is great to get your ski legs back.

Tignes skiing was really good, the off-piste is excellent and good piste skiing to suit everyone in the group. Palafour is a great run to get your ski legs back on.

We had lots of snow (end of March, beginning of April) which meant bad visibility, but we were still out every day and liked the area, it just meant that we didn’t get to explore as much as we’d have liked to because a lot of the lifts were closed. We did make it over to Val d’Isere one day and in better con... + more

I’d skied in Tignes before and my Dad (an intermediate skier) who was here for the first time really enjoyed it. We were quite lucky as it snowed whereas previous weeks had been quite patchy.

A great place, we’ve been a lot of times. The ski area’s well connected with a good lift service and there’s great skiing for all abilities.

This was a first time in Tignes for all of us but we all had a great week. It’s a good place to ski, with slopes that weren’t too hard for the less experienced people and more difficult stuff for the rest of us. I think we’d all quite happily go back. + more
Daniel, London

Tignes isn’t a pretty resort but it has good skiing and a good lift system, with no queuing. Tignes is very high which is great for snow and the week we spent here had good conditions on the slopes.

The conditions are as good as it gets in Tignes and I’d go back - the snow was fantastic and we had a great time. Ski wise, it’s such a vast area (we went for the whole Espace Killy pass). There’s plenty to do in the town and we found really nice restaurants and a bit of good après. + more
Lewis Davies,

We’re all fairly decent skiers who have skied together since the children were little (they’re now in their teens) and loved the ski area.

Before this holiday I’d only ever visited Tignes when I’d skied over from Val d’Isere. As a resort, Tignes is lovely and Val Claret where we stayed had everything we needed.

I’ve been to Val d’Isere a couple of times and this was my first time staying in Tignes. It’s a lot quieter than Val d’Isere, which has a lot more going on.

Tignes is awesome. It has a massive ski area and some really good lift-accessed off piste and backcountry. The snow’s good and the area as a whole’s pretty snow sure.

We were redirected to Tignes from Chamonix with 48 hours’ notice because there wasn’t much snow at the beginning of the 14/15 season.

We’ve been to the Portes du Soleil for four years running and thought we’d try something different, but we wish we hadn’t!

Tignes is a great place to stay, been there 4 times now. The skiing is so good, especially when you have the Val d’Isere pass as you can go all the way out. If you go all the way over to the far east side of Val d’Isere you’ll find all these great red runs with no one on them - not sure I want to recommend t... + more

Tignes is a really nice ski resort, probably one of the better resorts we’ve been to. The snow was good and it snowed during the week, so while visibility wasn’t always great, we had enough snow. The ski area is mixed enough that everyone could enjoy it, and you can ski further afield if you want to. We went ... + more

Tignes is great, it’s not as pretty as other resorts, but the skiing is really good and quite snow sure. It was a bit icy on the first couple of days but overall really good.

The only problem I had was that I wanted some snowboarding... + more

If you haven’t been to Tignes before, definitely make a play for the lake / le lac area. It’s a big bowl of restaurants, pizza stalls, shops and good runs.

I can understand the appeal to young people like me who want to go hard on and off the slopes, but for a family holiday I don’t think it’s as good.

Tignes is a high resort at 2100m meaning it is a great choice for early and late season skiing- went over the New Year period and had glorious sunny weather most days with excellent snow cover.

Tignes is really cool, I’ve been a few times – there’s so much skiing and it has a high altitude which means you have so much better snow.

Had a great time here, some really good nights out. I spent quite a lot of time in the park and now I’m a lot better at freestyle. We went to the Folie Douce which is great but it’s a bit weird, it’s not skiing but it’s not a night out, it’s kind of a weird in-between. + more

Tignes is quite a modern resort, it hasn’t got the infrastructure of an old place like Chamonix but it has everything you need – shops, restaurants and bars.

Tignes is a big bowl so everything ends up in the middle, whereas Val d’Isere is a valley so if you end up at one end, you have to go all the way over to get back.

I thought I’d enjoy Val d’Isere more than Tignes, we spent a day over there but whilst it’s got slightly more things happening, when you see the extent of the bars and restaurants in Tignes, Tignes is more than adequate. This is certainly somewhere I’d return to. The Espace Killy area is an awesome place, t... + more

The snow was good while we were there (early March). Tignes is very good. In terms of eating out, everywhere is nice for lunch, there is so much competition so the restaurants have to be good.

I picked France as it has better snow and Tignes because we did a late booking. My daughter got tired quite quickly so we didn’t do as much skiing as I would have liked - we went to the swimming pool every day, the good thing about the lift pass is that you get free access to the pool. + more

The ski area is huge and you have plenty of slopes on the whole Espace Killy. It’s quite high so you’re guaranteed good conditions.
