Whether you ski with children, or if you have decided to spend a ski holiday with friends, you will be able to find your corner among the domains of Andorra.

Ordino-Arcalís is perhaps the most versatile ski area in Andorra
Skiing in Ordino - Arcalís
The Ordino Arcalís ski resort is located in the Ordino Valley, in Andorra. Thanks to its orientation towards the northeast, the snow quality is very good during the winter and allows good skiing even at the end of the season. Another reason for booking a ski break on its 30 kilometers of slopes, is that it is at a considerable height, between 1,940 m and 2,625 m.
Ordino Arcalís is a very versatile resort. It has slopes for all levels and offers a wide variety of areas to practice different types of skiing and snowboarding. It has 9 green slopes and 6 blue ones for skiers who have just started in the white sport.
