Overview (Click for Holiday Deal)
Tignes is a bit of a gem! This place offers a greater variety of sporting activities than any other resort in France. It also has something to offer that no other resort will ever have, and that is the ability to offer doorstep skiing on it's glacier in the summer months as well as experience some excellent mountain biking, rafting and wonderful hill walking in the Vanoise national park. 

General
Tignes is one of Europe's hottest "Super Resorts" for winter skiing. It is a Glacial resort at a very high altitude which means that aside from it's immensely good biking, it is possible to ski and snowboard all summer long on the 25 kms of ski trails which remain open. Hill walkers are facilitated with the incredible and nationally renowned Vanoise National Park, which offers fabulous walks and stunning alpine nature and scenery. The use of ski lifts enables walkers to cover many miles of alpine terrain.
Activities
Tignes is the obvious choice for a more rounded sporting activity holiday where it is possible to ski in the mornings and also try other activiti
es not offered anywhere else in France to the same degree. Tignes is the only resort that will offer ALL of the activities mentioned in our menu, with the exception of water skiing.
Tignes Les Brevieres, where the chalet is located is a very pretty resort with a beautiful mountain lake and is situated under an imposing dam that sports the infamous and rather impressive mural of a "flying man" which has featured in some of the James Bond films. There are a few good bars and restaurants and we can provide quick access up to the more hedonistic nightlife in Tignes centre.
