Lift passes
2011/12 Espace Killy Lift Passes
From the start of the 2011/12 ski season we will be able to offer you discounts on your ski passes if you book an apartment or book ski or snowboard hire with us. The amount of the discount will vary according to the week but we will be as much as 20% off.
Please feel free to contact us if you wish to benefit from these price reductions by booking in advance.
Lift passes can be easily purchased on your arrival in Tignes. Or to save time you can always book with us prior to arrival. Below we outline the prices for various different types of lift pass and length of stay.
If you are a beginner skier or boarder it is worth waiting till you get to Tignes and organise some lessons and equipment as not only can you sometimes get good combo deals, it's also likely you will spend at least your first day on the free learners lifts, so saving you a days pass.
If you are a returning visitor to Tignes you can get 10% off your liftpass price by applying for a "Carte Tignes" - more info below.
SKI PASSES INCLUDE Free access to the Lagon swimming pool & Ice rink for any 2 day (or longer) ski passes.

More information about passes
If you have a 6 day pass from last seasons you can get a 10% discount on purchases this year. Go to the Maison de Tignes tourist office and fill out the necessary papers. The Pass' Tignes (the old Carte Tignes) - is what they get you to apply for and then you qualify for the discount. A bit of admin, but worth it!
The Pass' Tignes card gives you benefits and discounts throughout the resort. Read the article in the In-depth section for details on the new Pass' Tignes.
You can also get a pass called the 'Super Tignes'. This pass is approximately 90% of the cost of a normal pass and covers the general Tignes area as opposed to the whole of the Espace Killy.
Half days start at 10.30am in the summer and 1pm in the winter.
If you're a beginner, it's worth noting that there are a few free lifts in Tignes which you don't need to buy a pass for. These slopes are designed for learning so it's advisable to start here and save yourself some euros, till you are confident enough to tackle the mountains. There are 4 that we can recommend. The Bollin chairlift (Val Claret); Rosset chairlift (Tignes Le Lac); Lavachet tow lift (Le Lavachet); and the tow-lift Pitots (Brévieres).
It's possible to get insurance with your lift pass - carte neige - it's only 2.5 € per day -adult, 2 € per day - child/senior. We highly recommend you do this even if you already have insurance as it is very little extra and if you do have any problems on the mountain you are instantly looked after as it can be seen from your lift pass that you have insurance.
