Tignes Reviews & Ratings

Very nice resort, had very much fun and diffidently going again. Met a lot of new and friendly people.

Excellent resort for families. Well linked between other resorts. Lots of activities available on an evening and bus service providing links to different villages. Lots of runs for all different abilities.

After visiting Tignes last year for the 1st time from switching it up from
Austrias resorts.
We had a warm welcoming from the visitors centre in Val Claret that allowed us to drop in our bags before check in.
Once fuelled up on some unbelievable pizza from a local food spot, we was able to grab our skis and pass with ease,
Check in to our self catered apartment, and prep for the days ahead.
Waking up 7 on the 1st day and everyday after, wed enjoy a unreal homemade sausage roll and a coffee from the corner cafe before jumping on the funicular up to Le Grande Motte.

Snow is absolutely everywhere up in the Tignes valleys so you'll never be disappointed with the conditions. After a day of shredding, if your like me, where eating is cheating, wed finish by skiing down to Coco Ricos for the end of the day to catch the Live bands and Djs with what felt like everyone in Val Claret for some Beers and whatever else youd fancy! What a vibe.
Don't get me wrong you cant forget about the folie douce (if i have spelt that correct) but it will require you to catch the last chair lifts back up to ski down if your not staying in Val disere.
But anyway,

Repeat ^
For the duration of your trip and enjoy unbelievable terrain and unforgettable times with your pals!

Great resort, if a little busy at times. Huge variety of off and on piste areas to keep you busy for a long time.

Great high resort with good conditions throughout most of the winter. Fairly party heavy, excellent choice for big groups looking for some good skiing with apres, better value than neighbouring Val DIser.

Tignes is s great resort for beginner and advanced skiers with lots of off piste options. Also not too expensive compared to Swiss resorts. Lots of cheep accommodation and great lessons for kids. Would 100 percent recommend a visit.

Been to Tignes 2 times and had an amazing time both times stopped once in le lac and once in Val claret both great villages, good high altitude snow sure resort with great runs for all levels

Massive resort with fairly affordable ski in ski out accomodation and loads of night life. New lifts mean that there is very little queuing for them and the runs dont get too busy further up the mountain as the resort is so big

Some limits to ski area lower down and exclusively in resort, but with a full pass you can visit other valleys etc.
Tignes in split in two, the lower town has way more options for food, entertainment, family vibes etc. ski area does have some off pirate zones near trails you can dip into easily when it snows. But the real Backcountry is very challenging, full of rocks, basins, cliffs etc.
Higher lifts are required for decent snow later in the year. Pretty awesome extra curriculars with an on piste runway for flights, para ski etc.
Tignes park is great fun! Well maintained with almost every feature you'd want.

Tignes and Valdisere are great.

Terrain park is amazing if youre into that and the apres is always good.

I would definitely avoid staying at Les brevierres though as its quite far away. We made this mistake last time as it was cheaper. You end up having to get 4 lifts up to get anywhere and then are checking your watch from about 2 making sure you have enough time to get back.

Val Claret and anywhere in 2100 are better options imo.

By far the best ski holiday I have ever been on, plenty to do, the green runs are family friendly, lots of activitys for the family also, apres is brilliant, accommodation varies from choice we stayed in Val claret which was great access to food & drinks, shops, ski hire & right by the lifts.

Excellent skiing with even better apres. I had a great week here with my partner and another couple, Box Cafe Bar is a must visit.

Tignes is a really amazing resort, bonus points because the buses between villages are cery frequent and reliable!!

Tignes is a huge resort with something there for everyone.
Starting with the ski area its self the Espace Killy joining its sister town Val disere making up 300km+ of runs has a great variety of skiing availing from the high altitude glacier to the tree runs down in la daile and plenty of areas to experience off pieste. Theres also two snow parks with a good selection of features in both with regular freestyle comps being hosted. Plenty of black runs for the experts most notably the Olympic level La face but tied with enough blues and greens for the casual skier to have plenty to do.

If your brave enough the hidden valley and the fingers are some of the craziest runs youll find in the alps

Next the Apres. Some of the best Apres in the alps, from outdoor partying with live music and pyrotechnics at Cocoricos, late night clubs and sunshine supping at loop bar. Not forgetting mountain top dancing at La folie Duce!. Although beers can be expensive making use of happy hours youll find most bars par taking in and seasonaire discounts if you work in town it can be pretty reasonable compared with other resorts of its size.

The locals are really friendly around tignes and bar owners go out of their way to get to know the regular punters much more so I found than in the sister resort of Val disere. Another bonus in tignes is the resort is quite open and keeps the sun most of the day. I fully recommend sitting on the balcony at moose bar and enjoying the view of the lake on a warm day.

After 3 winters and two summers working in resort Im still finding new places to ski and new adventures to have. Theres really too much to do if anything in this resort.

Tignes is the best Resort for a group of all levels. Towards the end of the day, the last few runs can become icy and very busy but other than that, the rest of them are great. Theres so much skiing in the resort and the apres ski is amazing! Lots of great restaurants to try with awesome service!

I have skied all over the alps but completed a ski season in Tignes. The ski area is one of the best, if not the best, in Europe - especially for advanced skiers. The run from the top of the glacier down to tignes is my favourite run in the world. Apres is fantastic with options like Cocoricos or Loop bar and there are some fantastic restaurants.

Really good ski terrain with a mix of groomed and ungroomed. Quite high so fairly snow sure. Two decent snow parks for jumps ect and some small xc runs. Key lifts can be very busy at peak hours but generally are not too bad. Lots of good restaurants on the slopes for drinks and food. Restaurants and bars in the towns ar busy but some some brilliant food.

Awesome resort. It is absolutely massive especially when you include val disare. The slopes are very well maintained and groomed but due to the popularity the main slopes can get quite moguly lower down in the afternoon. There are runs for all abilities and even shuttle buses between the neighbouring ski areas if there are not any runs for your ability to make it across. They have a couple of good park sections including a full-sized half pipe and even a pond skim competition around Easter.

Great early and late season skiing
Lifts are fast and efficient
Multiple routes to and from link resorts
Good food options and apres options at top and bottom of lifts

Wide range of accommodation pricing at all star levels

All round great resort

Tignes is a fantastic resort for skiers of any level. There is a massive skiiable area and a wide ranging variety of terrain difficulties. Experiencing the "over the top" lift for the first time can require a bit of bravery, especially in a windy day going from the tignes to Val D'Isere side but is something you wont forget. The resort offers lots of high altitude skiing, but the highest lifts are susceptable to being closed due to high winds. There are also oppertunities to ski down runs used in the olympics, and there are 2 large terrain parks with huge jumps for those freestyle lovers. There is a great Apre's ski scene, with cocorico's being a particular highlight, but make sure you get in there early and it can fill up quickly. The resort shuttle bus runs evey 10 minutes in the day, and throughout the night, so that you arent forced to finish your day by skiing back to your appartment. And also if you want to party into the night you can check out Tignes le Lac, tignes 1800, and tignes val claret without having to walk between them. There are lots of restraunt options, but it is worth booking into some of the nicer places as you may struggle to find a walk in table at peak times.
