Tignes in Summer
|
Tignes is of course known as a winter sports destination. But once the snow has melted, green meadows appear below the white snow-capped mountains and the clear blue skies. Some of the highest and most stunning peaks in Europe become accessible, easily by lift within a few minutes or after several days of arduous effort. Tignes has a wide array of sporting and leisure activities in the summer, and you're guaranteed to find peace and quiet, and superb scenery, to be enjoyed at whatever pace suits you. Of course, the glaciers remain snow covered and are open for summer skiing. |
