About the Skiing and Boarding in Tignes

The skiing in Tignes stretches from the Grande Motte glacier at 3656m down to the villages of Le Fornet and Les Brevieres at either end of the ski area. Beginners will find some good nursery slopes leading into the Valley whilst intermediates will find many wide and lengthy pistes, enabling them to ski from one end of the ski resort to the other using only blue and red runs. Experts should not miss the steep mogul fields at Tovière, Solaise and incredible off-piste runs such as Le Tour du Charvet, Le Grand Vallon and the Col du Pers.
Grab a full area lift pass and at a small extra cost you can also grab the Aeroski along with many other lifts from all other areas of the resort over to Val D'isere and take full advantage of the huge Espace Killy Ski Area. For the adventurous park rider there are two snowparks, the Swatch Park in Tignes and the Oakley Park in Val D'isere both are home to big competitons and are highly maintained throughout the season. For the Snow Seeker head up to one of the two Glaciers to find some of the best White Stuff in the Alps.
The region boasts 25 black runs, 46 red runs, 61 blue runs & 22 green runs so it's safe to say you'll have plenty to keep even the most adventurous riders happy.
