This ski season, the most important novelty is that Grandvalira fully integrates the tracks of Ordino Arcalís , which maintain their identity. In this way, Grandvalira Resorts is constituted, which allows unlimited skiing in both domains, with any of the Grandvalira ski passes . With this pass , this season you can practice white sport on new tracks: a blue Solanelles XL, two green Valira and II, Bordes I and Bordes II, Pont de Grau and Refugi. The largest ski area in the Pyrenees also has three new skis from Bordes, Valira and Moretó. And, among other novelties, the chair lift of the Pla de les Pedres has been extended and the new Peretol sector has been inaugurated. This sector means that there are seven accesses to the Grandvalira station, with approximately 210 km of tracks.
«The ski slopes of Ordino Arcalís-Grandvalira will be open until May 3 and those of Vallnord Pal Arinsal until April 30, as long as the weather permits»
For its part, Vallnord Pal Arinsal has opted for the cultivation snow, to ensure that there is snow throughout the ski season. In addition, it has expanded the debuting area of the Snowpark and the Lower Camí track, to improve the safety of skiers. And, among other things, it has opened a new access to the Devesa track, in the freeride area.
