Professionally Guided Walks, Tignes

We've teamed up with Evo 2 and their local mountain guides to offer our guests a choice of guided hikes, which we include for free with our Active Packs. We will run at least two different walking groups of 8-12 guests at a time. A 'Discovery' group for families and an 'Adventure' group for those with a higher level of fitness who want to hike higher and longer.

These are sociable walks or hikes with other Alpine Elements guests; and you will learn about the local culture and see incredible sights along the way.

Top Tip: You can swap our free MTB Lesson for a second guided hike 'Adventure' range.  Each hike we take you on will experience a different and sensational part of the region.

Discovery Walk or Hike (Family Friendly)

  • Allow half a day
  • €29 with no Active Pack
  • Free with Active Pack 

Your first 'free' guided hike will take you on a tour of the local area, and you can join a slow or faster-paced group if you prefer. This beautiful looping walk starting from our hotel Tetras and ends back there, via the dam and back along the river. It will be run as a walk for families, or a hike if the group is up for a faster pace.

You will depart from the hotel and walk along the lake, then along trails which lead through woodland and more open alpine pastures the higher you ascend. It also uses mountain pathways and guarantees stunning alpine views of the Tarantaise valley and teems with wildlife, before leading back to the Hotel Tetras.

Adventure Hike - Eye of the Needle

  • Allow Half day
  • €29 with no Active Pack
  • Free with Active Pack
  • Or swap for MTB Lesson

You can swap your free MTB Lesson for a second guided hike in our 'Adventure' range. Adventure hikes are a little more challenging but perfectly doable for those of a moderate fitness and will likely utilise your lift pass (included on your MyTignes card).  Your guide will show you an epic walk at altitude visiting somewhere like the 'Eye of the Needle' in Tignes, taking in wildlife, incredible sights and alternative things to do along the way. Our mountain guides really know how to make a hike into a very fun and interesting experience.  After all - they're the experts!

Adventure Hike - Refuge Martin

  • Full day hike to Refuge for lunch
  • Lunch not included
  • €39 with no Active Pack
  • Free with Adventure Pack

Our Adventure Pack upgrade automatically comes with this famous 'Adventure ' hike incldued.  Its another very fine walk/hike, suited to those of moderate fitness (so almost everyone over the age of 12 really) and lasts for a full day.

It is one of the finest walks in the area and stops off at a local refuge for lunch so you can experience real mountain-gastro at 2154 metres!

Departing from the village of Brévières, this is a peaceful family friendly hike far from the crowds, running along trails which lead through woodland and more open alpine pastures the higher you ascend. Eventually it leads onto mountain pathways and arrives at the Refuge Martin which is open for lunch (extra cost) and must be pre-booked, (we will do this for you).

It is a stunning and rugged alpine walk/hike with views and wildlife all the way. The departure altitude is 1560m; leading to an arrival altitude of 2154m at the Refuge. You can continue to the highest point 2210m and up to the snowline and glacier.
