The main resort on the edge of Le Lac sits at an altitude of 2100m, above it is the Grande Motte Glacier, which rises to a heady 3456m. The resort was made with skiers in mind, so access to the slopes is fantastic. Tignes is famous for its off-piste skiing and has many classic runs to challenge the best skier or boarder. There is also a half pipe, boardercross and freeriding.
This is a relatively affordable French ski resort, which features a vibrant nightlife, and the slopes themselves have an impressive variety of restaurants. The ski area is easily linked to neighbouring Val d’Isere.
Our chalets are located in superb positions and many offer a truly ski-in-ski-out experience. Tignes is justifiably world famous and our guests can expect world-class skiing and excellent accommodation to suit!

At Tignes le Lac you’ll find the Tignespace sports centre and the Lagon swimming pool. Guests can walk over the frozen ‘Le Lac’ to Val Claret using clearly mapped paths. Ice skating on the lake is very popular and many like to hire nets for a game of ice hockey.
Those with a real passion for the cold can dip their toes for an ice dive under the lake. Or maybe you fancy a husky ride or a night time ski to take in the twinkling lights of the surrounding area. The Tignespace complex has a climbing wall that’s free. Or you can rent out a space to play football, tennis, badminton and squash.
Tignes has four dedicated tobogan areas that are fun for young and old!

Sian Manning2025-04-03 We have booked with Ski Vertigo and Ski Famille many times and have never been disappointed. This time we stayed at Chalet Isobelle in Tignes Le Lavachet. The day before our flight Heathrow was closed. Thankyou to the team at Ski Vertigo we still got to our destination and had a great week in a beautiful chalet with superb food and great hosting. Vicky Justice2025-04-03 Can’t recommend enough! Chalet staff were fantastic, so friendly, warm, and food was excessive and delicious. Wonderful chalets, great location and had an amazing time. Gren Dilks2025-03-31 Booking process was straightforward and all questions addressed. Dealing with someone by phone added a lot of clarity on what to expect and to tailor the holiday more closely to my requirements. Dan Hughes2025-03-29 Fantastic team, takes the stress out of ski holiday. Claire Harrison2025-03-24 The dream location with the dream team! We just arrived home from the best weeks stay at Chalet Sapin with our party of 11. We were made to feel at home from the moment we arrived. The chalet is in a fab location, ski in ski out, right beside esf ski school & with lots of space for our teenage crew to spread out! Wonderfully comfy beds, pristine facilities, stunning food & the best hosts we could have wished for. Shout out to Aurelia, Izzy & Alice. It really was a dream week in the sun & snow. Thank you ski vertigo, we will see you next year! Simon Goodwin2025-03-21 Incredibly helpful and friendly customer services during booking process along with great value ski package. Can’t wait for January! julie smith2025-03-18 Perfect place to stay Sam F2025-03-18 The entire team at ski vertigo was amazing! Truly top notch service from a welcoming chalet staff that felt like family. We stayed at Chalet Vega over NYE and we are still talking about our trip 3 months later. Our group visited from Texas, and this was unlike any experience you can find in the states. Will be back for sure! Special shoutout to Dave, Georgia and Ben for taking great care of us. Dave even went toe-to-toe with the manager at British Airways to get us on a different flight after finding out our departure flight was delayed and we were in jeopardy of missing our connection. Absolute over the top service until the moment we left France. Can't thank you guys enough! Hope to see you again soon! Graham Darby2025-03-18 Chalet Camille in Tignes, great facility, staff, location and outstanding service from enquiry to getting home from the week. Would suggest for anyone who wants a great ski break. EmLou B2025-02-22 Gives the impression of everything having been thought through, from bringing provisions for the lengthy coach transfers, to good relations with the ski shop so we were well treated there, lift passes sorted and a reminder to photo them so replacement would be smooth if required. Mads, Finn, Ben and Dave went out of their way to make our week in Chalet Orion, Val Thorens, memorable for all the right reasons. Food was delicious from start to finish and chalet was comfortable and well equipped. Only improvement needed is to WiFi but that requires copper to be replaced, meanwhile mobile data serves instead.
