Tignes - Ski Resort Guide

Webcam | Piste Map | Snow Report & Weather Forecast

If your looking for snow sure resorts to ski, Tignes is for you - you can even ski in the glacier in August! It was designed more for convenience than style but the surrounding scenery more than makes up for the town. There are three main areas: Val Claret is the closest to the Grand Motte and Le Lac and Lavachet on the other side of the lake are virtually interconnected now - an efficient shuttle bus links all three until midnight. Tignes is connected to Val D'Isere and together they make up the Espace Killy ski domain.

Tignes - Ski

You get the maximimum time skiing in Tignes as funiculars speed up underneath the mountain and fast chairs carry a remarkable number of people at once! This is home to some of the most testing ski terrain in the world - steeps, moghuls and off piste! Beginner skiers are still catered for with a nursery area and a few easier blues to progress to. Intermediates have plenty to explore and will love the quality of the snow. Take a look at the piste map or webcam.

Tignes - Resort

Apres ski is great fun in Tignes! Val Claret provides the biggest choice of bars, restaurants and nightclubs but the atmosphere is good in all the areas.
