Grandvalira
The ski region of Grandvalira is Andorra's largest, composed of
over 120 miles (190km) of runs linking six villages - Pas de la
Casa, Grau Roig, Soldeu, El Tarter, Canillo and Encamp. The
elevation of the longest runs is 3,000ft (930m) vertical with a
generous altitude of 8,660ft (2,640m). The most central village is
Soldeu, popular with families and those attending the excellent ski
schools. Nearby Pas de la Casa appeals more to youngsters enjoying
the lively après ski scene. Grandvalira offers some of the finest
beginner and intermediate slopes in the world, as well as some
exciting black runs for more experienced skiers to let loose. The
new Adventure Activity Centre has made a range of other activities
accessible, such as snow-mobiling, dog-sledding, ski bikes, and
tubing. Of course the main attraction remains the skiing, and with
first-class ski schools, modern and efficient lift systems and
reliable snow, this is the perfect choice for a ski holiday for
beginners and intermediates.
