Relaxion after a hard day on the slopes
Im sure that anyone that has ever hit the slopes, be it on skis or on a board, can agree with me when i say you end up aching.
I could barely move my arms and shoulders after the countless hours of trying to get up on my heel edge from the floor. You get to the stage when all you want is that nice relaxing bath, the problem is not very many places in the Alps have baths and i was staying where there was only showers.
After a lot of complaing and a trip down the Maison de Tignes, i was given a brochure for Village Montana. Basically, its a hotel five mins walk from from where i was.
After looking at the brochure we all decided we were going to go and have a look.
For 20 Euros, you got the use of the Sauna, Steam Room, Outdoor Heated Swimming Pool, Jacuzzi amd the Hot and cold Showers. Excelent we thought, it doesnt close till eight at night, the problem came when we realised we had no swimming gear. But believe it or not they had spare ones which they hired for 5 euros a piece. They are not the nicest looking or best fitting but they soon get forgotten when al your aches and pains are washed away.
They do a range of other treatments including masage and other beauty treatments but these have to be paid for seperately.
Im going to Tignes again in April and im definately taking my bikini with me this time!!
