Tignes March 2004

In March 2003, ‘boardagain’ took a group of 12 mixed ability skiers and boarders to Tignes in France. Fantastic resort with lots of sun and snow. Thoroughly enjoyed by all who went. See:

‘Experience Tignes, France – March 2004’ for a brief review.  

Experience Tignes, France – March 2004

Where do we start!?! After the March 2003 trip to Tignes, we just had to go back for more. The ‘boardagain’ team would argue that this is quite possibly one of the best resorts in the Alps, despite the 4 hour coach transfer from the airport; it’s worth it in the end. Always a guarantee of great snow due to the altitude, Tignes offers a variety of skiing for all levels. The resort is situated in a valley and if you stay in the centre as we did you can ski to your door from pretty much anywhere. ‘boardagain’ took a group of 10 to the Roc Blanc Apartments on a half board basis so breakfast and evening meals were included in the price although we did eat out on a couple of occasions. ‘Harry’s Bar’ (now known as ‘Censored’) does good priced food and is well worth a visit. There are several other good bars and restaurants but our choice by far is ‘The Loop Bar’. Great food and service, the bar is so popular with us that on one occasion when the sun was shining we spent the entire day there – well we hadn’t gone all that way to go snowboarding had we!!??!! Tignes is definitely a must do resort and is in the running again for a trip in March 2006. Watch this space for details!
