Did you say "challenge"?

Skiers in the Tignes ski area

Are you looking for adventure and want to challenge yourself with friends or family? Why not go down an incredible sequence of 4 red runs, diversify your technique on an expert bordercross or put skins on your skis to test your cardio? In Tignes, there is no shortage of challenges!

Take up the challenge!

The “itchy thighs” challenge

You’ll hurtle down the Glacier-Rimaye-Face-Double M combo of red runs (1,350 metres of vertical drop)… without stopping!

  • Alternatively, take on the Sache, a mythical black run, very demanding and not systematically groomed. Only for strong thighs!

The beating heart challenge

Solo or in a group of up to four, test your mettle on the banked turns, woops, bumps and tight curves of the expert boardercross accessible from the Palet ski lift.

The “shortness of breath” challenge

Put on your touring skis and crank up the cardio along the 465 m D+ Palafoulée trail, accessible from the right of the Almes chairlift.

More ideas for family challenges

Slide (without falling) on the Easy Park beginners’ rails, complete your first 180° on the green-level tables or race the clock on the Gliss’Park mini parallel slalom. It’s up to you!
