Tignes Travel Blogs

It was a fantastic snowboarding trip as a part of my third year of university. Tignes is a superb skiing/boarding destination with lots of large tracks.

Snowboarding holiday to Tignes, France

Went skiing in Espace Killy (Tignes and Val d'Isère), France. Nice skiing area with 300km slopes. Endless après ski. I prefer the ski slopes of Val d'Isère (less artificial)...

I think there is only one place you can go and ski in Europe and that's france !! I travelled from village to village and these are my favourites : - chamonix, old fashion high class - val thorens, great for boarding and partying - les deux alpes, small but friendly - avoriaz, more family type of village if your dutch : go with sportura it's cheap and in the middle of town. they've got great bars aswell.

Sorry... I will only post pictures! It's too hard to write a blog about everything I did last year!

A week of snowboarding

In 2005 I took 6 months off work and went to work for a well-known UK ski company in the beautiful resort of Val d'Isere, France. I'd never skied or boarded before, but figured this would be a good way to learn. I badgered, cajoled, threatened and tricked 2 of my good mates from home to come too. I hope they enjoyed it as much as I did - we are still talking at any rate!
