Ski from the door of this cozy 4 Trident Club Med resort. While your snowboarders (from the age of 8) and budding free-riders (14 years and upwards) tackle the 59 blue runs, why not take a well-deserved break at the Club Med Spa by Payot*. And then come the pleasures of those deliciously sophisticated après-ski moments at the bar especially as it’s all included.
With more than 1000 hectares of the most varied marked ski runs imaginable, and a remarkable 10,000 hectares of off-piste, much of it is easily accessible from the lift system, it’s one of the most exhilarating ski areas in the world. Indeed, it is not difficult to make out a case for Tignes and its neighbour Val d’Isère being among a handful of the world’s finest ski resorts – some would even say the finest. Yet such high quality skiing comes at a price: Tignes is one of the more expensive places in the Alps for a winter holiday.
