Last spring, the municipal councillors of Tignes and Val d'Isère voted on the prices of ski passes. In view of the sharp rise in energy prices and the renegotiation of contracts with suppliers, the two local authorities were forced to pass on PART OF this inflation to the ski passes and approved the new rates, which are valid for the entire winter season. The day pass is therefore €63.00, the same price as last winter, and the 6-day pass has increased slightly to €378.00. New this year: for a 6-day ski pass purchased, the 7th day is free (6=7). Tignes also offers the ski pass to children under 8 years old and children from 8 to 18 years old benefit from the reduced rate.
