Tignes snow report and forecast

Discover the latest Tignes snow conditions

Author Caro Blackwell, Destination Editor Updated

It’s been a fairly cold but mainly sunny week here in Tignes for the last quiet week on the slopes before the half term families arrive. Luckily with the crowds comes some colder weather and it looks like there is a little snow in the forecast.

What’s happening now

We still have a high pressure in control of our weather. Today we have another sunny day here, but this looks like our last bluebird day for a few days. The humidity is staying low today, so although we will experience temperatures between +2°C and +5°C degrees around 1,500m we will not experience much thawing. Tomorrow it will be cloudy, slightly colder and the air will be more humid. The temperatures will drop to around -8°C by Friday evening.

What’s coming up in Tignes 

Over the last few days snow had been forecast for the weekend, but this looks to have moved away from the Northern Alps over to the west. However some weather models are still predicting light snow for the weekend and Monday. This uncertainty is due to the high pressure area sitting north of us.

Temperatures will stay quite low, with a variance between +3°C and -3°C at 1,500m. It will remain cloudy for the next few days, with only light winds and there is no significant snowfall predicted.

Avalanche risk

The current risk of avalanches above 1,800m is moderate, 2 out of 5. This is due to the warming through the daytime. The most susceptible slopes are the very steep sunny slopes, in particular south, southeast and southwest facing slopes. The snowpack is moist.
Caution is advised and as always, if you plan to venture off-piste, ensure you have the proper equipment, up to date weather information and advice from the resort, and guidance.

It's school holiday time

This weekend sees the end of the empty pistes and quiet chair lift queues! The school holidays have arrived and with them come throngs of families and children's ski schools all around the mountains. 

To make the most of your time on the slopes, here are a few tips:

  • To steer clear of the crowds, aim to ski during the off-peak times such as - early mornings, jump on the first lifts.
  • Ski through lunchtime and enjoy a late lunch then ski again later in the afternoon when the mountain tends to be less busy.
  • Be mindful of the ski school hotspots, meeting times and places and plan your route accordingly. If you must ski in these areas, try to do so at different times than the ski schools meet.
  • Make the most of your half-term week by exploring all the additional activities and exciting fun events available in the resort.
  • Be sure to catch the torchlit descents and fireworks displays.
  • Always check the avalanche risk in resort and don't head off-piste if you don't have the up to date information, equipment and guidance. 

There will be plenty of activities and events going on during the next four weeks. Check out what’s on in February in Tignes.
