There is no direct airport-to-resort train on this route. A rail-and-bus connection may exist via the nearest valley station; check every change and the final bus with ski luggage.

Train and bus to Tignes: official guide

Hire car

Best for: Exploring several resorts during your stay

Driving 225 km into the mountains in winter means winter tyres, snow chains where required and paid parking in Tignes. Worth it if you will use the car during the week.

Tips for this journey

  • Give your flight number and the number of ski or snowboard bags when you book. Passenger seats and luggage space are not the same thing.
  • Tignes is high (the ski area starts around 1,559 m). After fresh snow the last climb can be slow and chains may be required; allow extra time on the return to the airport.
  • Saturday is changeover day in most Alpine resorts, so roads and airports are at their busiest. A midweek or Sunday arrival is usually quicker.
  • Use your full accommodation address. Two chalets "in Tignes" can be far apart, and some are only reachable on foot or by a local shuttle.
  • Kiwitaxi also lists drop-offs nearby (tignes rhone alpes). Pick the one closest to where you are staying.
