The mountains in the summer are totally different yet equally as wonderful as they are in the winter. If you're thinking of coming to Tignes for the summer then you will probably want to pull on your walking boots and explore the mountains by heading out on a hike or walk.
There are gentle walking trails for those of you who would like an easy stroll or have children in tow, and then there are the longer more strenuous hiking routes for the active walker. If you are thinking of heading out higher into the Alps or tackling something a little more challenging then it is always advisable to chat to the mountain guides in town who will be able to give you more advice or even take you on a trail.
When heading off on a hike or walk it is always best to get as much information about the route as possible, head to the tourist office in town and check the weather forecast to make sure you are being as safe as possible.
