Why Tignes Is a Smart Move for Alpine Property Investors
Looking for the perfect alpine property investment? Tignes, a soon to be year-round resort in the French Alps, is quickly becoming a hotspot for savvy investors. With access to world-class skiing and increasing demand for rental properties, Tignes offers a unique blend of affordability and growth potential.
Tignes provides access to the same 300 km of pistes as Val d’Isère in the famous Tignes-Val d’Isère ski area, but at a much lower cost:
- Val d’Isère new build properties range from €35k-€40k per square metre.
- Tignes offers more affordable options between €16k-€21k per square metre.
- With ongoing infrastructure and resort improvements, this price gap between Val d’Isere and Tignes is shrinking.
- There is strong potential for capital growth as Tignes rises in popularity.
One of Tignes’ key advantages is its extended 40-week operating season, far longer than the typical 20 weeks in other resorts. Activities include:
- Summer skiing on the Grande Motte Glacier.
- Water sports on Tignes’ stunning lake.
- The slopes turn into mountain biking courses in the warmer months.
- Popular hiking trails attract visitors throughout the year.
- The Tignes golf course, at 2,100 metres, offers stunning views and an annual competition.
- Tignes hosts a variety of events, making it appealing for visitors in every season.
For those looking to invest in the French Alps, Tignes offers affordability, significant growth potential, and consistent rental opportunities in a vibrant, year-round resort.
