skiing Andorra: Snow up your Life!

The tiny country of Andorra offers a ski area in the Pyrenees that is anything but small: Grandvalira is in fact Europe's largest ski area outside the Alps! Andorra, between its large neighbours France and Spain, is not to be overlooked. Even though Andorra only has two ski areas to offer, these areas offer first-rate skiing enjoyment. In addition, Andorra is well-known for its great shopping. Every year streams of shopping tourists make Andorra their destination of choice, bringing along a great source of income for the tax-free country. This money, in turn, is invested in the winter sports infrastructure and other leisure centres such as spas and ice skating rinks, which means that Andorra has much to offer on and off the piste. Andorra's two large ski areas are among the world's most modern.

Grandvalira:
By linking the areas Pas de la Casa/Grau Roig and Soldeu/El Tarter, Grandvalira solidified its claim as Europe's largest ski area outside the Alps. Whether you are looking to spend your time on the broad pistes or prefer to find adventure off-piste, you'll get your chance in Grandvalira.

Vallnord:
On the other side of Andorra you'll find the counterbalance to mega-station Grandvalira. Here you'll find two very different ski areas connected with a gondola. Pal offers a dignified atmosphere and lovely forest runs, and Arsinal offers many beginner's slopes. Vallnord's 3rd ski area, Ordino Arcalis, is not connected with these ski areas.
