Tignes Le Lac sits just next to the beautiful big Tignes lake. It's made up of an array of high rise apartment blocks and hotels with a few traditional chalets dotted around.

Tignes Le Lavachet is a hamlet located just outside of Tignes Le Lac. Also next to the beautiful Tignes lake this hamlet is slightly quieter than Le Lac and with an array of apartment blocks, hotels and a few small chalets there is still plenty of accommodation to be found.

Tignes 1800 (Les Boisses) is the quietest of the Tignes resorts, set back from the main road and situated on the mountainside.

Tignes Les Brévières is the most picturesque of the Tignes villages, right at the bottom of the Tignes valley next to the river, it is the lowest and prettiest of all the Tignes resorts.
