Family on skis in Tignes

In Tignes, we love sharing our passion for skiing. Since there is no right age to start, everything is in place so that everyone from your little ones, to your best childhood friend (who is no longer a child…) can get started in complete safety, with maximum pleasure.

I’m a beginner… skiing, snowboarding, telemarking

Head for the beginners’ areas! These reassuring and fun progression zones are THE answer to your most secret questions (“What if I can’t take the lift? What if I fall in front of everyone? Imagine I don’t like that!”). Includes: 9 free lifts (4 carpets, 2 drag lifts and 3 chairlifts) and two fun runs (with woops, mini-slalom, xylophone…).

I’m discovering… ski touring

Head for the Fastoche, Collu and Palafoulée trails! Safe and groomed, they allow you to work on your cardio over 180 m, 390 m and 465 m of vertical drop respectively, then head back down the marked trails.

I dream of… freeride

Head for the Naturides! These signposted and safe, but ungroomed, black runs train you to ski on all types of snow. And to find the right powder spots (and learn how to use your indispensable trio of avalanche transceiver + shovel + probe), trust Tignes’ instructors and mountain guides!

I’m going… freestyle

Head for the Easy park! Its green, blue and red level tables and rails are perfect for testing your first (small) jumps and rotations.

Bonus: immortalize your run for free by scanning your pass at the start gate.
