The Winter X-Games Return To Tignes!

16th - 18th March 2011



A ski holiday in Tignes boasts year-round skiing and snowboarding and has some of the most exciting and challenging ski terrain outside The Three Valleys. A first-rate snow record, with enormous variety of both on and off piste skiing. Linking directly into the 300km ‘Espace Killy’ with an extensive lift system - it’s a quick drop over the hill into neighbouring Val D’Isere. An area lift pass allows for a day trip to The Three Valleys or Paradiski areas. Great for all abilities, this really is a ski holiday resort with something for everyone.

The main resort of Tignes is made up of three areas; Le Lac, Le Lavachet and Val Claret. All the villages include a number of shops, restaurants and atmospheric bars where the après-ski is fairly lively. There is also the opportunity to sign up for numerous activities off the slopes - many of which involve varying amounts of adrenaline!
