Chalet Alaska sleeps up to 20 people in the following configuration:
There is a hot-tub and a sauna on the ground floor as well as a fireplace in the lounge.
The Ski Area
In 2 minutes, you can be out of the door and onto the nearby blue run that takes you down to either the Chaudanne (for exploring Palafour area) or Paquis chair (to easily get into the Val d’Isere area). Alternatively, in 5 minutes, you can walk down the road to the central rond-point where ski schools meet and there are more lifts and ski buses to Val Claret or even Les Boisses. To return to the chalet on skis or board, you can ski from the Palafour side and ski almost to the door. Excellent location, near to Chalet Lys Martagon and Chalet La Perle!
The Resort
Chalet Alaska is situated in the Les Almes quarter of Tignes Le Lac where most chalet accommodation is located. There are multiple restaurants, cafés, shops and supermarkets all a short walk away.
There is a leisure centre in Le Lac (free access with a 6 day lift pass), a luge and many other attractions.
See more on the Tignes ski area and resort here. You can also refer to the Tignes snow forecast here.
