Already in 1936, Tignes, the pioneer, welcomed its first skiing visitors on the only draglift of the village.

After the construction of the dam in 1952 and the drowning of the old Tignes village underwater, the village was able to rebuild itself and took the height to climb up to 2100 meters above sea level, in the middle of an amazing 360° natural circus.

In the seventies, Tignes totally changed to become quickly the international, notorious, mythical resort we know today.

Since 1986 Tignes is very involved in the organization of international sports events and the training of high level athletes!”
