Tignes does not have much of a reputation for après ski and nightlife, but this is not due to a lack of trying.
Tignes does not have much of a reputation for après ski and nightlife. Admittedly it does not have the party atmosphere of other European resorts but this is mainly due to the rather soulless feel created by most of its architecture and not down to a lack of entertainment effort. In fact there are over 75 restaurants, 50 bars and four nightclubs.
If you are staying in Val Claret you can cut off the slope by Tuffs chairlift and stroll towards the Crowded House. It's central, has a welcoming and laid back appeal and is perfect for a few drinks after a hard day on the hill. Alternatively if it’s still sunny you should sit down with a drink outside one of the local bars with sun terraces, such as Fish Tank or Grizzly’s Bar. Down the road in Le Lac there are more bars.
