Tignes

OFFER: Our 4* Hotel Tetras is at a lower Introductory price for earlybirds (2025)

Our programme in Tignes is designed for those who like a little luxe with their alpine holiday. We provide a more exclusive holiday from Tignes les Brévières, the original ‘old town’ of Tignes. It’s in a more tranquil setting, very picturesque, and with an inclusive package of free activities that we’ve specially designed with local experts to appeal to both alpine lovers and active enthusiasts. It includes the best activities in the area - for the best price - so you get an unforgettably rounded experience of the Alps.

Your inclusive activities will start from our hotel or include guides and transport directly from the door, so you don't have to worry about meeting points. You’ll enjoy a bespoke week of activities and our Active Team will always be on hand to deliver as much adventure as you can handle

Les Brévières is away from the bustle of Tignes Le Lac so you get to enjoy this very beautiful region away from the crowds. And it all happens at the Hotel Tetras Lodge, our 4* boutique retreat which is exclusive to our British guests and right on the lake.

It is a very pretty village, perfectly situated at the foot of Tignes Le lac and Val d’Isère so you have the best choice of these two super-resorts at your fingertips. And right in the Vanoise National Park, is an alpine playground which teems with wildlife and incredible walks, bike trails and the widest range of activities of any region in the Alps. It also gets more than 300 days’ sunshine a year.

You can choose from 3 packages of activities for your week away: including guided walks, bike rides and premium activities that you can do from the doorstep of our hotel (or with private transport) so you don't have to worry about finding the activity or walking to get there! And when you’re done with being active for the day, come back to our stylish alpine retreat and take it easy for a while. Enjoy some afternoon tea or a lazy time in the sunshine, our beautiful alpine garden fronts onto the lake and happy hour is always early!

“With so much on offer in Tignes, the hardest part is choosing what to do!”

Alpine sporty types will love the sheer variety of activities on offer, (you can even try glacier walking or summer skiing!).

For Alpine Lovers

Tignes is in the heart of the protected Vanoise National Park which teems with wildlife and incredible walks. There are walks with waterfalls, walks along the impressive Lac du Chevril and walks dotted with cultural stops like churches and mountain villages, (be sure to take a break at a mountain restaurant or book into a high altitude refuge for lunch).

Try an Altitude Experience and take the funicular train straight to the glacier, trek around the snowline or hire a guide and go for a more serious hike above 3,500m with snowshoes or crampons for more adventurous souls.

Tignes Les Brévières is perfect for the nature lover in you. It’s peaceful location puts you in the heart of some great walking or leisurely E-bike rides; and a must-do visit to the Refuge Martin for a high altitude lunch. Brévières is at the foot Val d’Isere and Tignes so you can decide which to explore: enjoy the open-air markets (usually on a Wednesday) and amble around the many shops, cafes and museums.

Families, Kids & Teen’s

The Alps in summer - and especially Tignes - are made for families! The sheer variety of activities on offer will ensure all ages are happily entertained all week - with more free and inclusive activities than you can shake a kayak paddle at! There’s things to do for the under 4’s and lots more for the over 6’s. And of course your teenagers are going to love this place! It has heaps of crazy sports that they will love to do.

Mountain & Road Biking

Tignes is basically heaven for the biker in you. There’s more than 300kms of biking trails from Green to Black grade which span into neighbouring Val d’Isère and a free bikers’ lift pass so you can cover many miles without ever having to push your bike uphill! There’s more than enough terrain to keep you busy all week and the area is simply breathtaking: with bike parks, learning zones, kids parks and superb shops and mechanic facilities.

Tignes also hosts the Tour de France and you can cycle up the TDF section from our hotel front door in Les Brévières, up to the lake. It’s very scenic and the first road section is a Col road with very little traffic. Very good road rides are to be found all over the area.
