I'm always torn between Tignes/Val'd'Isère, Trois Vallées, or Zermatt. If it's purely about the variety of skiing, then Tignes/Val'd'Isère wins.
Long slopes, large area, ski runs only occasionally intersect
Located at a high altitude and largely treeless, which leads to less good visibility in bad weather.

All the reviews on this site appear to be over 10 years old so thought i would leave one. could resort, high altitude but it can get busy and it is getting more expensive. def not a hidden gem
Great for all levels

A truly delightful discovery! The ski area is fantastic, the slopes are perfect, thank you to the snow groomers!! The shuttle buses are incredibly convenient, thank you to the super friendly drivers! It's lively and vibrant... The ESF instructors are incredibly friendly, REALLY! We met some lovely people... By far the best resort we've ever been to!
Fantastic resort, the slopes are excellent for intermediate skiers, lots of blue runs, wide and well-groomed! Absolutely perfect! A special mention to the really friendly shuttle drivers! And the shuttles are very frequent for getting around the resort.
The price of the package is high, parking is difficult! You have to book in advance! If you even knew that...

It's a superb ski resort for its terrain, but even if you don't ski, there are plenty of activities to do and a great après-ski atmosphere ⛷️
Good snow, wide slope
Only paid parking, even when you have accommodation

A vast high-altitude area with several villages linked by ski slopes and free shuttle buses! Paid parking is available almost everywhere... The largest ski area linked to Val d'Isère; modern and fast lifts!
High-altitude area; Nature Ride trails and a wide selection of off-piste terrain. Links between the two glaciers for a very extensive ski area.
In the valley floor, the most difficult to access; everything is very expensive (pass prices increased in 2025!)

The Tignes resort boasts modern and well-maintained ski lifts. The slopes are wide and meticulously groomed. A wide variety of activities are available besides skiing. However, parking and lift pass prices remain high.
A ski area offering a huge range of possibilities to suit all levels of skiers, with breathtaking scenery.
High package price and parking fees.

“We spent a week in Tignes from December 28th to January 5th with my wife and our 4-year-old son, and it was a real success! My son loved the slopes and the ESF ski school facilities, especially the Piu-Piu Club, which is perfect for toddlers. For my part, I was able to enjoy the black runs, which are always well-groomed, as well as the marked off-piste areas, with exceptional snow quality. We also enjoyed the mountain restaurants, where we ate very well while enjoying superb views. We also took advantage of the indoor swimming pool, which is very well-equipped with water slides, several pools, areas for toddlers and older children, as well as lap lanes. The sports complex is a real bonus, especially since access is free with the weekly lift pass, which is really appreciated. For New Year's Eve, the resort organized a superb open-air concert, followed by a magnificent bonfire. fireworks added a magical touch to our stay. Despite the heavy snowfall, the resort managed the situation perfectly: in just half an hour the following morning, the entire ski area was open again. Remarkable organization! I wholeheartedly recommend Tignes to families and ski enthusiasts of all levels, whether they're learning or exploring more challenging slopes.
Large ski area with well-maintained slopes
Connections between stations are often congested during peak hours.

Tignes is a resort where you're guaranteed to find snow. The ski area is large and well-organized around the lifts, making off-piste skiing easy and safe. However, it seems to me that the lift pass is the most expensive in France. We stayed for New Year's Day, and there was a fantastic fireworks display with lots of entertainment. Afterwards, we noticed that Tignes is trying to move upmarket and catch up with Val-d'Isère.
Large ski area with guaranteed snow. Efficient lift.
With the wind, it can get very cold. The package is very expensive for a family.
