About the Resort
About Tignes (Les Brevieres)
Tignes Les Brévières is the picturesque, traditional heart of the expansive Tignes-Val d'Isère ski area. Nestled at 1,550 meters below the impressive Chevril Dam, it stands in stark contrast to the purpose-built upper villages with its classic Savoyard architecture, traditional wooden chalets, and winding streets. It offers a cozy, authentic atmosphere while providing direct gondola access to one of the world's most renowned ski domains.
The Resort
Despite its lower altitude, the village boasts excellent snowmaking, ensuring ski-in access throughout most of the season. Skiers can enjoy a quiet, family-friendly evening vibe, escaping the bustling après-ski of Tignes Le Lac or Val Claret, yet still tap into 300km of high-altitude, snow-sure pistes by day.
On the Mountain
Accessing the sprawling 300km Tignes-Val d'Isère domain is seamless via the Brévières gondola. Skiers can enjoy wide, cruising blues, challenging black runs like the legendary Sache, and immense off-piste terrain, all ending with a scenic descent back to the charming village through the trees.
Tarentaise Valley / Espace Killy
Located in the Savoie region of the French Alps, this area is renowned for its vast, high-altitude terrain, snow reliability, and the seamlessly interconnected Tignes - Val d'Isère ski domain.
