Mountain Biking Tignes

Tignes and Val D’Isere offer some of the finest bike trails in the Alps and the best opportunity for beginner and improving Downhill riders to learn this great sport because we’ve teamed up with Evo 2 to offer a range of lessons

With an altitude range of 1550m to 3456m, the terrain is diverse and the trails are quieter which puts it on a par with the mighty Morzine, especially for the Enduro rider. There may be fewer Km’s of trails than Morzine, but it’s high quality stuff and there’s more than enough for a week away!

Free Activities, Bike hire & E-Bikes

Downhill MTB Lessons

Lifts are open all summer

  • Free Lift passes for Bikers
  • Free Lift passes for walkers
  • Lifts Open June 14 to September
  • Lifts cover Tignes & Val d'Isère

Just like Morzine, bikers can use the chairlifts and gondolas in Tignes. There may be fewer lifts and trails, but they are of a high quality and span over into the epic resort of  Val d'Isère. The lift system (6 lifts) is open all summer, so you can access 350+Km’s of excellent tracks and Downhill trails suited to all levels of rider, from beginner and up.

Beginner & Expert Downhill MTB

Tignes is great for beginner and expert Downhill riders and you will enjoy our special Downhill MTB Lesson which we have designed with local professionals Evolution 2 to appeal to everyone, even the faint hearted! These lessons will help you get started in the world of Downhill MTB or just improve your riding on Tignes’ epic trails. 

You will start on famous beginner trails like the Smoothie (green) or Jump Around (blue) which go from the top of the Palafour chairlift and, like all lifts and trails, is FREE on your MyTignes Multipass! Your Multipass will include a number of amazing trails and bike parks for the experts.

Downhill MTB Lesson

Cross Country / Freeride Nirvana

Cross Country riders will love that sense of adventure that comes from covering huge distances using your free lift pass, but knowing you can always get back home! Tignes and Val D’Isere have hundreds of Kms of epic trails and scenery that will blow you away. The quality of trails is excellent, (even if the number of Kms is less than rival Morzine), and there are fewer people out on the trails in Tignes - which is really what counts!

In addition, the huge altitude range of this region (1550m to 2,800m) means that the riding here is more diverse and interesting than anywhere else in the Alps.
