The helipad
Getting there
The helipad serving Tignes sits at Les Boisses, the lower village of the commune, by Lake Chevril — not at Tignes-le-Lac or Val Claret. It is listed in the French civil aviation authority's register of heliports. Allow a short road transfer of a few kilometres up to the higher villages and the lift departures.
When to go
A long winter season, carried by the altitude of the ski area and the Grande Motte glacier. Rotations concentrate on Saturday changeover days, when the upper Tarentaise road is at its busiest.
