NESTED IN THE PYRENEES, ONE OF THE BEST PLACES TO SKI IN EUROPE
Andorra – a first class ski holiday destination
Andorra’s huge ski resorts with their family-friendly slopes are probably the main reason for Andorra’s popularity among tourists, but the tiny country does have other things to offer.
Because it’s such a small country, all the resort villages are remarkably similar, having almost all the same pluses and minuses: low prices (including duty-free goods), lively bars and clubs, good ski schools, reliable snow, young clientele, mainly easy, well-groomed slopes with plenty of snowmaking facilities and mountain restaurants, are all fairly typical of Andorran resorts across the board.
SKI RESORTS IN ANDORRA
Arcalis
As the most remote resort in Andorra, it's easy to assume Arcalis is not worth a day-trip. But that would be a shame, as the variety of the terrain is better than most of the other resorts, even if the extent is not up to much.
Vallnord / Pal-Arinsal
Pal has escaped much of the development that other resorts in Andorra have succumbed to. Pal is a quiet and picturesque mountain village over the ridge from Arinsal, with a small, reasonably varied, wooded ski area a couple of kilometers further up the hill.
Soldeu - El Tarter
Soldeu has a lot in common with other resorts in Andorra - low prices, great ski school, grim-looking village, lively bar-based nightlife.
