What is included in the Grandvalira weekend pass?

Our offers in Grandvalira put in your hands numerous hotel + ski pass packages in Andorra at the best price. These packs include accommodation in Grandvalira and access to this resort. You can also hire other extra services, such as ski equipment rental, ski or snowboard lessons, daily meals, car rental and après-ski activities.

Is there a combined ski pass in Andorra?

Yes, although they are not valid for weekend ski deals in Grandvalira. From autumn 2019, when booking a hotel + ski pass package in Ordino-Arcalís of four days or more, you will be able to ski in Grandvalira for a whole day (this day will replace one of the ski days in Ordino-Arcalís). The offer is valid only for the duration of the ski pass.

What to do in Grandvalira after skiing?

The après-ski deal in Grandvalira is very extensive.

Yes, for a small additional fee, you have the possibility of taking out ski and assistance insurance offered by ARAG . The policy covers eventual medical and sanitary assistance, sledge and ambulance expenses, repatriation and the displacement of a family member if hospitalization is required, among other concepts. Our advice is to take out the most complete medical insurance possible for weekend skiing in Grandvalira, since the European Health Insurance Card is not valid in this country . Check the conditions when you make your booking.
