Ski Tignes, France

With access to glacier skiing, ski holidays in Tignes offer some brilliant high altitude skiing in a vast and beautiful ski area known as the Espace Killy. In addition to its well known neighbour, Val d’Isère, you will find some brilliant cheap ski holidays in Tignes making this the ideal base to explore the Espace Killy.

Skiing in Tignes will offer a little something for everyone out there. There are some good nursery slopes in the village for beginners who can then advance to some more nice, sweeping runs. The more intermediate and advanced out there can try the challenges presented by the more difficult blue, red and black runs. There is plenty to keep you busy on your Tignes ski holiday!

The après ski in Tignes is pretty varied with the most lively found the higher up the mountain you go. If you still have the energy after your day on the slopes and want to party the night away you will find enough bars and clubs to keep you going into the early hours.
If you are looking to bring younger children on a Tignes family ski holiday there are quieter alternatives like a cinema, bowling alley and plenty of alternative off slope activities to keep you going for the week.
