Location
About the surrounding area of Apartment EstelleNestled in the heart of the dynamic and multifaceted Tignes resort, Apartment Estelle is a gateway to a world of excitement just 170 metres from the vibrant centre. The prime location ensures seamless access to the diverse attractions that define Tignes as a year-round destination, captivating a broad and varied audience.
Tignes, far from being a seasonal wonder, thrives with life throughout the year. Step outside, and the commanding Grande Motte glacier, soaring proudly at 3,456 metres, welcomes you. Since 1967, it has been the playground for summer skiing enthusiasts, drawing top athletes and hosting major sporting events, transforming Tignes into a haven for skiing aficionados with 300 kilometres of interconnected slopes. These slopes have witnessed prestigious competitions, including World Championships and the European Cup, adding a touch of glamour to the snowy landscape.
But Tignes is not just about skiing. Winter beckons with the thrill of ice diving, heart-racing toboggan runs on the "Palafou," snow tubing, sledge dog rides, and daring off-road ski corridors. It caters to families and beginners with the "1,2,3… SKI START" areas for safe skiing initiation.
Come summer, Tignes metamorphoses into a playground for varied activities. The skies fill with paragliding and microlight adventures, while Europe's highest 18-hole golf course entices golf enthusiasts. Tennis, volleyball, archery, mountain biking, paddle, pedal boats, sailing, and water jumping on the lake offer various choices for outdoor enthusiasts.
Tignes is more than just a sports haven; it has hosted the French football team's training courses, welcomed the Tour de France, and lies on the fringes of the Vanoise National Park, guaranteeing encounters with protected wildlife like chamois, ibexes, marmots, and golden eagles. As an eco-responsible resort, Tignes earned two flowers in the "Towns and Villages in Bloom" competition in 2017.
Amidst all these adventures, remember to indulge in the local gastronomy, featuring delightful blueberry pie and an array of Savoyard cheese-based dishes. In Tignes, every season unfurls a new chapter of excitement, adventure, and natural beauty—a true year-round Alpine haven that beckons you to savour the magic of the French Alps.
