Prepare for your stay
THE AREA
Tignes is situated in the heart of la Tarentaise and enjoys “the most beautiful skiing area in the world”: The Kelly Area. The skiing area (ski slopes and off-piste) is huge and of very good quality. The resort is equipped with modern infrastructures and as a bonus, with a 2.5 km long snow park! Big advantage: all the skiing slopes are accessible by foot no matter where you are staying. Thanks to the glacier and to the height of Tignes, there are 4 skiing seasons. The resort also offers many activities for a dynamic and varied after-skiing time.
The Tignes area is divided into four parts: La Grande Motte, the Tovière area, the Palet area and the Brévières area. Four areas, four atmospheres, four times more landscape to discover, fresh air to breath and slopes to hurtle down.
