The Rhone / French Alps / Savoie region
The Savoie Region of France is a mecca for skiers of all abilities from across Europe. Being the highest resort in Europe the one thing that Tignes is guaranteed is good snow. The season starts earlier and finishes later than most other resorts. According to 'The good Ski & Snowboarding Guide 2005' Tignes is one of only two ski areas in France listed as 'Snow-sure resorts'. Tignes skiing is a combination of the pistes of Tignes and Val D'Isere which combine to make up the L’Espace Killy. There are 300km of pistes: 20 green runs, 60 blues, 35 reds and 16 blacks, plus 44 km of cross country skiing, 2 terrain parks, 2 glaciers and 90 ski lifts including 2 high speed underground trains (funicular railways).
It offers the largest area of on piste skiing in Europe as well as some of the most extensive off piste skiing making Tignes one of Europe's premier resorts. The majority of runs are wide and therefore suitable for all levels of skiers or boarder with 5 free lifts for beginners. There are plenty of snow sports schools and equipment hire shops for tuition or hire. Boarders are well catered for as there are several very well constructed snow parks.
Apart from skiers, the region plays host to mountaineers, hill walkers, water sports enthusiasts, families and touring parties.
Tignes / Val Claret area
Tignes shares the world famous L'Espace Killy ski area with its neighbour Val D'Isere but does not charge the same prices making it very attractive to families or those on a budget.
The ski resort Tignes comprises 5 Villages; Val Claret (the higest), Tignes le Lac, Le Lavachet, Tignes Les Boisses and Tignes-les-Brévières. Val Claret is a modern resort with varied and plentiful amenities. These include a professional childcare, cinema, supermarket, ski shops, ski hire, ski/snowboarding schools, medical centre, pharmacy, spa, ample car parking, ATM's, great apre ski, nightclubs, and a wonderful mix of restaurants to cater for all tastes and ages.
Once you reach the resort travelling within it is very easy as there is a very efficient system of buses known as the “Navette”. These run free of charge from Tignes Les Boisse, down by the dam to Tignes Le Lac every 30 minutes from 8:45am to 6:45pm as well as from Le Lac via Le Lavachet to Val Claret, starting hourly from 6.30am to 8:30am and then from 8:30 to 6:30 every 30 minutes and then again hourly from 8:30pm to Midnight. There is also a chargeable bus service between Tignes Le Boisse and Val D’Isere but be warned if you get stuck over there with your skis after 5:30pm you will end up catching a taxi back!
How to get there
Tignes can be accessed easily throughout the year via various forms of transport. The alps are primarily served by five airports; Lyon, Grenoble, Geneva Chambéry and Turin all of which have regular flights from the UK and Ireland. Carriers to these destinations include, Easyjet, Aer Lingus, Ryanair, Flybe, bmibaby, Thompson Fly and British Airways. Bourg St-Maurice train station is the nearest station to Tignes. This is served at all times of the year by French mainline services. Eurostar also runs a service known as the 'Snow Train' at weekends throughout the winter season that is direct from London. Road access to the Tarentaise region is remarkably good thanks to the 1992 Albertville Olympic games, especially from Chambéry and Lyon. Transfers from these Airports can be made entirely on motorways as far as Moûtiers (36 miles from Tignes) and then on roads that have been widened to accommodate the hundreds of buses that use them throughout the year.
