The ski area: Val d'Isère - Tignes

Originally named in honor of the Olympic champion of the avalin country, Jean-Claude Killy, Espace Killy linking the Val d'Isere and Tignes resorts was renamed "Tignes Val d'Isère" in 2016. Its 300 kilometers of ski slopes are connected by numerous ski lifts: 4 cable cars, 2 funiculars, 4 cable cars, 23 detachable chairlifts and 22 fixed as well as 34 ski lifts to go from the Pisaillas Glacier to the Aiguille Percée.

The snow

The Val d'Isere ski area is one of the highest ski areas in France. With a maximum altitude of 3 300 meters, the tracks of the Massif de Solaise have an east exposure which allows them to keep the snow as long as possible. A massive glacier overlooks its 17 kilometers of trails: the Pissaillas Glacier, culminating at 3 300 meters

Thanks to a network of snow canons producing 2 500m³ of snow per hour, Val d'Isère's Snow Workshop guarantees optimal conditions all winter long. Due to its ideal snow conditions, only 17 snow canons, of which 9 are independent, compensate for the natural snowfall of the resort. Hence only 40% of the 150km of slopes are equipped with snowmakers. This installation could cover a football stadium with one meter of snow in less than an hour! The water consumption for a winter season in Val d'Isere represents 0.28% of the capacity of the Tignes dam.
