1 Snow dust and opening of more facilities and tracks

2 Grandvalira Resorts

Opening weekend of the snow season in Andorra with a positive balance from the Ordino Arcalís resort. Some 3,500 people among skiers with a seasonal pass and a day pass have wanted to inaugurate it. This is a special season, since Ordino Arcalís recovers the exclusive season pass for its tracks ; and in the same way, for the first time all the skiers of Grandvalira have included the option of skiing in Ordino Arcalís. This has moved to the slopes, where many users of the Grandvalira ski pass have wanted to start this weekend on the slopes of the Ordino resort. Until May 3 the resort will be operational every day, hoping to reach the 170-day opening figure.

Much anticipation this Saturday first thing in the morning at the foot of the Tristaina Cable Car to start the snow season in the Principality. The announcement of the opening of the slopes, as planned in the Coma sector, was more than expected news for skiers and economic agents that depend on this sector. And the fact of being able to enjoy this sport from as soon as the Principality is an atypical fact and that has been very well received. A total of 2,000 skiers during the day on Saturday and about 1,500 on Sunday have been responsible for putting color to the ski slopes.

Snow dust and opening of more facilities and tracks

The slopes of the Coma area have been connected to the base of l'Hortell. The chairlift of the Basera was also enabled, providing a further alternative to customers, up to the Cap de la Coma. This Sunday, and thanks to the light snowfall that has been recorded during Saturday night , with 10-15 cm more , the Canaleta track was opened, which added to the Basera track and El Pont have allowed us to offer a more towards the base. The percentage of open tracks has been around 40% . The weather has accompanied, on Saturday it was a sunny day and during the night a light snowfall has fallen that has left about 15 cm more at the highest levels, and that has made the Sunday skiing day combined sunrays with weak snowfall early in the morning. During the week the conditioning of more tracks and facilities is expected, as weather forecasts advance, on which the work of the field team depends. Other services will also be conditioned, such as the School (which has already been operational since Hortell), the snow garden and all the restaurants will be opened progressively.

Grandvalira Resorts

One of the great novelties of the season following the integration of Ordino Arcalís with Grandvalira has been the benefit of having included the pass to the Ordino resort with all ski passes. This fact has been very well received among Grandvalira season ski pass customers, who with their pass have been able to access the Ordino Arcalís resort and release the season at the same time. The official opening date of the Grandvalira slopes is November 30 .
