Flying in Tignes

A unique experience, with magnificent views and incredible sensations guaranteed!

For backcountry adventures, this independent company operates in and around the following three heliski destinations: Valgrisenche, The Courmayeur Valley and the Col de Petit St Bernard Pass. They have pioneered 32 drop zones within these three broad valley regions giving you a huge choice of terrain, snow conditions and mountain orientation to ensure you have a day best suited to your ability and preferences.

Legal in France, so accessible from your doorstep, it’s the perfect way to combine helicopters, skiing / snowboarding and huge vertical meterage without bearing the brunt of full Heliski day prices. Using ski lifts to reach the summit of resort, then ski backcountry reaching terrain often inaccessible without a helicopter where you’ll get picked up and taken back to resort.

A fantastic way to see the resort with your friends and family and a great way to entertain any non-skiers in your group.

Alpamayo are a group of high mountain guides based in Chamonix all year round as well as in Val d'Isere and Tignes in the winter.
