Tignes Ski Holidays

For new skiers, Tignes ski resort offers two specially dedicated beginner areas that can be used free of charge. Intermediate and advanced skiers will probably benefit the most from the diverse skiing area. There are some great cruising blues and steep descents to be found on the Grand Motte, and long winding slopes can be found in Val Claret and Col de Fresse. Freeriders will want to ski the Paquerette, Epilobe and the face of the Aiguille Percée for some steep powdery action.

With many ski schools and instructors to choose between, there really is something for everybody.

We’ve partnered with New Generation and Oxygène and highly recommend their services. All of our partners offer fantastic lessons for all ability levels.

At the top of the Chaudannes lift, L’Alpage des Chaudannes is a great spot for a lunch break. They serve a great variety of food at reasonable prices and the portion sizes are usually very generous.
