  • Although there are steep slopes at Arcalis

    (linked by lift and a regular bus to form the Vallnord ski area), Pal/Arinsal is very much a ski area geared towards beginner and intermediate skiers and snowboarders. The ski schools here have a very good reputation, as well as long history of teaching English visitors. Add in low prices fuelled by Andorraโ€™s tax-free status and there is good reason why this is such a popular family ski destination.
    You get access to the whole area with a season pass or a ‘Ski the North’ pass – which allows you four days in Pal-Arinsal and two days in Ordino-Arcalis.

    Pal/Arinsal - Vallnord Resort

    Although some accommodation is available up at Pal, most of the best options are down in the valley at La Messana. This is well-linked to the skiing via a gondola however, making this perhaps the most attractive option.
    In town there is a great range of food options, as well as some lively bars along the main street that runs through its heart โ€“ note that this can get a little busy in the morning and also at the end of the ski day. The only downside to staying here is that youโ€™ll have to download the gondola at the end of the ski day.
