Located at the foot of the Trolles piste and an only 150 metres from the main Tovière gondola and the Rosset chairlift, the Chalet Corniche is in a prime spot for skiers looking to explore the Tignes-Val d'Isere Ski Area. It's also in the centre of Tignes so you are not too far from the shops, restaurants and après bars.

Relax at the end of an active day with a glass of wine in front of the central fireplace or socialise with your friends and family in the comfortable lounge area.

Flights to Chambery or Geneva from 13 UK airports.

Transfer Times

  • Chambery airport: approx. 2 hours 30 mins by coach
  • Geneva airport: approx. 4 hours by coach 

There is a traffic light system for the Tarentaise Valley. This system controls and slows down the traffic, stopping traffic sitting in dangerous places, like tunnels, where rocks can fall and to make snow clearing easier when it is snowing. This can impact your transfer time, meaning you may arrive into resort later and be leaving for the airport earlier. 

Transfers may be longer during bad weather conditions or French school holidays. French school holidays span 21 Dec 24 - 06 Jan 25, 08 Feb - 10 Mar 25 and 05 Apr - 05 May 25.

The transfer in Tignes will stop as chose as possible to your chosen accommodation and in some cases there may be a 5 minutes' walk due to the location of the property not being accessible by coach.
