Weekly programme, social hour, and contact details
Two fast lifts – a gondola and a fast six-pack – whisk you up to Espiolets, from which the entire Grandvalira area awaits. A network of mostly blue and red runs links up with the slopes above El Tarter to the west and Pas de la Casa to the east. Almost every run is over 2000m and a good proportion are covered by snowmaking, making this a snowsure bet for your winter holiday.
Soldeu is a good place to start, especially as the ski school has an excellent reputation. The nursery area is very good but note that it is up at Espiolets so must be reached by the gondola, the same lift that early learners will want to download on at the end of the day. From this point on, however, and with almost half of the runs in the ski area rated as blue, the progression opportunities are very good.
There is plenty to keep all but the keenest intermediates happy. Trips to either end of the Grandvalira area – to Pas de la Casa at one and El Tarter at the other – are in the reach of all intermediates and are certainly recommended. We would also suggest taking on the Rossinyol blue run along towards the Canillo access lift for its views and a sense of peace and quiet.
The town is growing and there is really good selection of accommodation, a lot of which is in easy reach of the lifts. Unfortunately it is not traffic-free so the busy main road may put off families from staying on it, but quieter spots can be found extremely nearby.
Most of the activities and care for children are located up the mountain at the top of the gondola at Espiolets. The facilities up there are great, but it does mean that there is not as much to do in town. Staying in one of the bigger hotels with a pool is therefore the best bet if you’re looking for off-snow activities.
Lots of the bars in town have live music or DJs and some of our favourites include the Aspen, Fat Albert’s and the Villager. If you really want to party then end your skiing day at the neighbouring resort of Pas de la Casa, which is famed for attracting hoards of party-goers and some big-name DJs.
Toulouse airport to the north and Barcelona airport to the south are the nearest to Andorra, both of which lie around three hours away. Hiring a car is the best option.

Mild conditions continue throughout this week, with positive temperatures and plenty of sun dominate across the region until the weekend.
Cool weather moves in over the weekend as low pressure just about scrapes the region, bringing with it negative temperatures at mid-mountain level; at the same time, around 15cm of snow will fall, and, with the freezing line falling from 2,000m overnight this will ensure that snow reaches most elevations.

My first love is and has always been skiing. My love affair started when I was a young student and I cut my teeth on the mountains of Scotland. I have been fortunate to ski in many European resorts over the years as well as America, Canada and Japan. I like nothing better than cruising the piste to skiing steep and deep, and now dipping my feet into some ski touring too! From a fair-weather skier to an all-weather skier (and sometimes snowboarder too) I love it all. A bad day on the slopes is better than a good day at the office!! I really look forward to meeting you and sharing my joy of skiing with you, as well as the coffee & cake stops
I have been a ski lover for more than 35 years, shunning summer holidays just waiting for the snow to arrive. I have skied extensively in Europe, the US and Japan. my favourite skiing is in the USA. I love to ski off piste and I am always on the hunt for fresh tracks. I like a bit of cyling to keep the legs in shape. I also love classic cars and motor sport. I am looking forward meeting and skiing with members in Soldeu this season.
Ever since I was not allowed on public bus with my 2m 20cms skis (old days) from Perth Academy – I was determined to go skiing. I love teaching many sports, aerobics, squash, basketball, windsurfing and skiing. (qualified PE teacher) I also created the world’s first multi-coloured dry ski slope (red, blue and gold) while Director of Leisure in Durham. I now live 45 minutes away from the Lecht
