Chalet Glacier, Tignes Le Lac Summary

One of our most popular chalets across the programme, the Chalet Glacier is an attractive, traditional ski lodge in the Tignes le Lavachet area. Standing less than 50 metres from the high-speed Paquis chairlift and nearest piste, after a decent snowfall you can ski right up to the door. It's also 5 minutes’ walk from the bars in Lavachet, or 10 minutes’ from the centre of Lac - and there's also a bus stop right outside.

The chalet is rustic both outside and in, with pine throughout - the kitchen caters for 28 guests seated at wooden benches, and the bedrooms are similarly basic. The living room is a comfortable place to relax, a good size with inclusive C-shaped sofas, shaggy rugs, and bean bags. The chalet is big on atmosphere and the same guests tend to enjoy it season after season regardless of whether they are large or small groups or families.

Please note:

Children aged 11 years and under are only accepted in school holidays (Christmas, New Year, February half term and Easter) OR if the whole chalet is occupied by one group.

Tignes (pronounced 'Teens' by Brits and 'Teenya' by the French) is one half of the vast ‘Tignes-Val d'Isere’ ski area, one of the biggest linked domains in France. High-altitude terrain and Grande Motte glacier skiing ensure the resort both opens earlier in the ski season and also closes later than most resorts, and we’ve even seen lifts running for stints of summer skiing. Split into 5 purpose-built villages with distinct characters, it's well linked by pistes, lifts and free buses. Tignes Le Lac (aka Tignes...
With varied pistes at a high altitude, the ski area has impressive powdered terrain for skiers and boarders alike. 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. Tignes is incredible if you ski at an intermediate level, with miles of powdery blue and red runs includi...
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 c...
