It is also possible to enjoy a 10% discount on group ski or snowboard classes during the week for children (until 13 years old, 2 children minimum per family.)
“Prior to every Winter, we work with the booking services and the ski lift company on products we could offer our clientele throughout the entire Winter. We established this family product together and it perfectly suits our clientele that comes for the Winter holidays, explains Philippe Périnet, the Station’s Director. This is the second time we’re offering this product that is proving to be very successful.
The clientele of Tignes is rather young and athletic, but families are obviously part of our clientele, especially during school vacations.”

A unique activity for the entire family: a microlight flight
In Tignes, it is possible to experience one’s first flight onboard a microlight, an ultra-modern machine.
Put the skis aside, sit comfortably in the machine, and find yourself propelled in the air flying over the station with a unique panoramic view.
This activity is accessible to adults and children alike, meaning to the entire family. And this winter, it will be possible for the first time ever to fly on patrol with two machines in the Tignes sky.
“A microlight is a very light motorized glider with 2 seats. This is the 3rd Winter that we are offering this activity, it has become one of our most popular activities, specifies Philippe Périnet, it is a unique experience because it is a modern, reliable, and powerful machine, the latest model, the best option to fly over the mountain with a unique panoramic view. Tignes is one of the rare ski stations that administers this activity.”
