Looks amazing. Heading to Arinsal in mid January and can't wait. We have some snow here in Scotland just now and hopefully will get some practice in before going to Andorra.
Thanks for your update. You are making us more excited with our Christmas ski trip. Yeey...but how does the lift works in Pal Arinsal and ordino? They said that the chairlift are connected in some other resorts. When we buy our forfait, does it include all lifts/cable car from parking? How much is the forfait in Pal Arinsal and Ordino? Sorry for the many question. It"s our firat time in andorra. That is why your video is so awesome. Cant wait to be there❤
@alvinlacson610 You’re very welcome. Where will y’all be staying? If y’all plan to ski in Vallnord (Ordino, Pal and Arinsal) then the best is to stay in La Massana. There’s a cable car station what will take y’all up to Pal, Coll de la Botella at Pal has a cable car to go to Arinsal or vice versa Arinsal to Pal on the same cable car. If y’all are skiing only in Pal and Arinsal then staying in Arinsal is an option. Here is the information I found on ordinoarcalis.com: Bus line Vermella / Red Arinsal - Erts - La Massana This service will be available from the start of the winter season. Free circular service from Arinsal to La Massana, to access the cable car that connects to the Pal sector. With a stop in the village of Erts. No prior reservation is needed; just show your lift pass or the purchase confirmation voucher. Bus line Groga / Yellow Arinsal - La Massana - Ordino Arcalís This service will be available from December 26th, every Thursday of the 2024-25 season. Free service with prior online reservation. Reservations can be made up to one week in advance and until the day before the service Check it out as they have bus schedules. Your ski pass will include rides for cable cars, chairlifts, drag lifts. Check Grandvalira website for forfait dynamic rates, €66/day but €120/2 days for example. So it depends on how long y’all are going to stay to ski and which day. There are package deals from tour companies but I don’t have any information on that, y’all could check around. I made 2 long videos completely covered all Andorran resorts one last year and one the year before so check them out. Good luck and let me know if you have any other questions that I may be of help. Happy skiing and Happy Holidays!!!
Thanks so much for the loads of helpful infos❤ we will be driving from madrid to xixerella park where we are going to stay. I saw that pal arinsal-sector arinsal is just 4min drives from xixerella and there is where we are gonna take the cable car going up. Is that right? We are planning to ski for a day in pal arinsal and the next day in ordino. Just to have good feel on both resort. Is that plan ok? What tip can you give me, plsssss😅? And is it better to purchase the pass online now? Thank you and be safe always.
@alvinlacson610 My pleasure glad to help! If y’all are driving to Andorra then y’all got it easy as driving your own car to ski resorts is always quicker and les of a hassle with waiting for the bus with full gear on. Please have winter tires 🛞 even though the roads are clean and clear by 8:00am but if there’s a snow storm then it may take longer for them to clear the snow especially driving up to Arcalís as it sits up high so winter tires are a must. Xixerella is half way to Pal and Arinsal, so it takes no time to get to the gondola in the middle of the town of Arinsal which will take y’all up to Arinsal ski area. There is a chairlift station to take y’all up to the same ski station or drive all the way up to Arinsal ski station, y’all got three options as y’all are driving. Or y’all could drive to Pal ski around then get on the cable car to Arinsal. Remember that in case of extreme wind, the chairlift to take y’all up to the top of Arinsal where the Arinsal-Pal cable car is may not run or from the other side over to Arinsal, so keep that in mind. Now, Arcalís is a bit of a wiggly waggly drive up to the ski station but it sounds like a good plan you got there skiing at these three small resorts in 2 days. Yes, definitely do get your forfaits online to get a cheaper rate. Okiedokie I’m here if y’all have any other questions that I could answer don’t hesitate.
Hi, thanks for the video, I'm looking at a trip mid March, so a few questions: (a) what's the snow like in mid March? and (b) we like to ski 40/45km a day, is that possible in Andorra? TYVM
@keithtracy3316 Hi Keith! Judging from March of this past ski season, I skied in snowstorms with knee deep powder. I’ve always skied in the month of March so I’m assuming that this year it wouldn’t be any different unless Mother Nature decided no more snow for the month of March. I can ski 40km in 3 hours in Arinsal or Arcalís. In Grandvalira I can ski 80km in 6 hours. There are more than 215km of runs in Grandvalira, if all links are open y’all could keep on skiing until they shut down at 5pm. Hope this information helps. Happy holidays and happy skiing ⛷️
واہ بھائی واہ بہت برف ہے
