Speed Skiing for Beginners

A chance to try speed skiing in Tignes

Imprint
Updated

Bring your own helmet to the Lognan Stadium in Tignes Val CLaret for your chance to see just how fast you can go.

There is an area set aside for speed skiing at the top of the Merles & Grattalu chairlifts and once you have been told how to ski fast - it's gravity really - you are set off and the timer begins.

Helmet is compulsory and not provided.
