RENTING
  • Tip Rating:
  • There are lot of places to rent the stuff to ski. On the way to the stations it is easy to find 10 or more stores.
    To get an idea skis + stiks around Eur 7 for one day. I think it is cheap.

    Linking Soldeu & Pas de la Casa
  • Tip Rating:
  • Due to some kind of long-running fued you the two largest areas for skiing in Andorra are not linked. At one point they do however come very close and you can pass from one system to another.

    If you have bought the Skiandorra card then you can use both system in a day. It cost 121 Euro for 5 or 6 days last season.

    STOP PRESS 26/10/03 : Saw an annoucement today that the two companies have at last buried the hatchet and will marketa joint card in the new year. More details when I find them out.

    Nicest ski area
  • Tip Rating:
  • If you only have one day for skiing I would recommend looking at the Arcalis ski area.

    It's proabably the most scenic with a good mix of black, Red & blue runs. Eating options are somewhat limited as there is not a village at the skiing area.

    Andorrans seems to be proudest of this resort - perhaps because it is publically owned ?

    Renting equipment is cheap in Andorra.

    Find a place on the way up if you are driving.

    Alternatively , to buy new, look round the supermarkets in the capital for some bargains

    Andorra is great place to do some winter sports, they have lovely high mountains you to ski or snowboard. In the summer time you can go hiking there and enjoy some breath taking views. They also have some luury spas over there.

    You can hire skiing equioment from many places

    Beginners Snow Stuff
    Andora is a great, inexpensive place to try out a snow holiday - if you like it then great but if not then you haven't spent a fortune finding out!
    Any of the Andoran locations are pretty much typical of most European resorts, if a little smaller than some. Generally good cheap food and drink to be had in pretty locations.

    Soldeu & El Tarter are very pretty locations and a little quieter than their neighbor Pas de la Casa where the skiing is more varied but the landscape a bit like landing on the moon.

    If necessary you can kit yourself out with pretty much anything you will need when you are in the resort. Obviously the best idea is to rent equipment until you know if it is for you.

    Skiing Andorra
    Skiing and snowboarding in Andorra is incredible. I went to Grand Valira ski resort which has lots of ski slopes together and you can get up from different towns. It is full of snow and there are three snowparks to have fun in and in addition you can listen to music. To get into the snowparks you need a helmet, but not in the beginner one where you can learn your first tricks.
    There are lots of shops where you can buy snow clothes and equipment, and also you can rent them.

    Snow clothes and equipment. There are lots of shops where you can get both of them, and the prices are quite low.

    Great skiing!
    We stayed in Pas De La Casa. The lift pass gives access to about 6 different resorts and is really good value. You could spend weeks exploring the huge amount of runs! There are also a number of boardercross and freestyle areas.

    There are lots of ski hire shops in the town.

    This is a great place to ski!
    Many people ski the Alps, but why not consider Andorra? There are 5 major ski areas, which are all different and beautiful in their own unique way, and none of them are far away from each other. Better still is that there is something called the Ski Andorra Pass, which is valid at all 5 resorts. I highly recommend a visit to the website called Go Ski for detailed information about Andorra´s ski conditions and resorts. Click here to go there.
