A medium length walk from Tignes le Lac to Tignes 1800
Taking just over an hour, this walk follows the path above the connecting river between Lac de Tignes and Lac du Chevril.
Starting near the Hotel Montana the route heads north along the path signposted for Tignes les Boisses. The path initially follows the curve of the mountain passing under the Télésiege de Chaudanne.
Staying above the road the path eventually leads you into the forest above Lac du Chevril. Once through the forest you will see Tignes 1800. From here follow the signposts to the tourist office, where you can catch a bus back to the start in Tiges le Lac or return via the same way to the starting point.
The route can found on IGN map 3633ET Tignes-Val d'Isère and in the 'Les Sentiers de L'Été' booklet available from the Maison de Tignes tourist office.
