Andorra: Skiing Holidays
All you have to worry about is your plane ticket. We'll take you from there!
Our self-catering properties are located within walking distance from the gondola that takes you to the Pal-Arinsal ski resort. We can arrange for ski passes, airport transfers.
The resorts of Pal and Arinsal now form a single resort, linked by a cable car and a single ski pass. You thus have a fantastic ski resort right in front of your door step:
Resort area: 700 ha
Altitude: from 1'550m to 2'560m (height difference: 1'010m)
63 km of runs: 4 greens, 16 blues, 16 reds and 5 blacks
Levels: 30% for beginners, 55% for intermediates, 15% for advanced
Half-pipe, boarder-cross area, freestyle area, slalom course
30 ski lifts: 1 cable-car, 1 gondola, 12 chairlifts, 10 drag lifts, 1 conveyor belt, 5 baby lifts
2 ski schools with 160 ski teachers
371 snow cannons covering 19 km of pistes which guarantee good conditions from the beginning of December to the end of April
Kindergartens: 2
Snow gardens: 2
Bars and restaurants: 11
Picnic rooms: 2
First Aid centres: 2
Ski lockers: 2
The strong points are: the view, the weather (it is often sunny in Arinsal when the Pas de la Casa is in thick fog), the off piste skiing in the forests, red runs which are really red (especially in Pal), few narrow trails, the prices, few people (especially compared to Pas de la Casa) and brilliant après-ski.
Arinsal has one of the best boarder-cross areas and half-pipe in the Pyrenees.
Arinsal Pal is a resort for all skiers and snow boarders, regardless of their level. Beginners will not feel out of place and advanced skiers will not get bored. English is spoken just about everywhere on the slopes.
The Arinsal-Pal ski pass is also valid for the Ordino-Arcalís resort! This means that you will be able to ski in Pal, in Arinsal (which is connected to the Pal resort by a cable car) and Arcalís which is only 20 km away.
Ordino Arcalís is the favourite resort of the Andorrans. If you're looking for the best snow conditions in the country, this is the place to ski! Although not the biggest of resorts, it's location and altitude make it a favourite, especially for the more advanced skiers. When the snow turns to ice or slush in the other resorts, Arcalís often still has powder.
Arcalís is only 20km from Arinsal and your Arinsal-Pal ski pass is valid there. If you want to go to Arcalís, it is best to rent a car.
