Tignes

Tignes is an excellent choice for last minute ski holidays because it not only has a great selection of slopes, it also has quite a lot of history as well. Originally Jason Sanders Jersey Elite , it was just a small mountain village, but after World War II the area needed power so a massive dam was built. This drowned the original village (a planned event) so it had to be entirely rebuilt. The modern incarnation saw the region divided into five different villages, all of which are ideal for a pleasant winter break.

The actual resort area of Tignes was created in the 1960s, and in 1992 it played host to the Free-Styling event of that year's Olympic Games. It was also home to the Paralympics the same year.

Tignes offers a range of slopes suitable for all skill levels. It is situated on the Grande Motte Glacier and Authentic Stephen Piscotty Jersey , as such, is able to offer year-round skiing.

Val d'Is猫re
