Tignes in Summer

 Summer in Tignes

Many people are still oblivious to the wealth of Summer Activities that Tignes has to offer during the warmer months.  Once the snow has melted we are left with a summer paradise in which to walk or hike, Mountain Bike (MTB), Paraglide, golf or just lie back amongst the summer flowers & take in the stunning scenery.  The Grande Motte  glacier also remains snow covered and is open for summer skiing in July & August. The Lift System is open during the summer, making it easy to access those high mountain trails & viewpoints, or if you fancy something more daring then there are numerous Mountain Guides & Activity Companies in the area to accompany you.  You don't even need to bring your own mountain bike or climbing kit with you as there are plenty Sport Shops in town where you can rent all you need.
