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...

"Small, typical French Apts"

Skier from Scotland
3/ out of 5
They’re OK – typical small French apartments, fine for me on my own but would probably be tight if they were full and using the bunk beds in the hallway and the pull out beds in the lounge. The bedding in the room probably wasn’t the cleanest. Something worth knowing is that the exit time of the apartments is later than the arrival time. I managed to leave my bags in a nearby chalet run by the same operator otherwise I would have lost 4-5 hours waiting around with my stuff. In terms of the location, it’s great to be able to ski back (if not being able to ski out). The ski back was a red which went into a black, which was fine for me coming down but might not work for families – if you didn’t want to ski you could just walk from the next run or use the bus service which was great. I ate out so didn’t use the kitchen, there are one or two restaurants nearby but I would definitely recommend Couloir which is over at the other end of Tignes but a really good place – I ended up eating here about 4 times.
