At an altitude of 2,400 m, the highest motor racing circuit in the world is located. Its geographical location allows for excellent snow/ice conditions in winter and ideal heat conditions in summer. The circuit offers a wide range of activities throughout the year: in the summer, young and old alike can hire go-karts and motorbikes, as well as try their hand at driving (or co-driving) competition cars; in the winter, they can learn to drive on ice. The Andorra GSeries and the famous Andros Trophy race are also held here! Vrrroomm!

If you're in the mood for dynamic sports and a lively nightlife, the El Tarter area is the place to stay. During the day, enthusiasts can take advantage of the snowpark (rather high level), which concentrates the most important freestyle activity in Southern Europe, in an extreme sports atmosphere. There's also ratrac skiing, off-piste skiing and dog sledding. The small town of El Tarter is very pleasant and rather pretty. There are a few good restaurants and relaxed bars where it's easy to meet people.

From snowshoeing to helicopter flights, cross-country skiing and even igloo building, young and old alike can enjoy the snow. Multi-adventure packs allow you to combine snowshoeing, igloo building and snowmobiling or mushing and snowmobiling. Other activities such as rafting, climbing or hiking are also possible in summer.

Grandvalira (Pas de la Case sector) is the liveliest and most popular with the French, given its proximity to France of course. Snow conditions are often optimal, and the wide choice of slopes is a delight for skiers of all stripes. The number of hotels is immeasurable, and there is virtually no native population. Pubs, restaurants and boutiques (the shopping area is considered one of the best in the principality) are the après-ski havens. Fairly young population.

Grandvalira (Grau Roig sector) is a ski resort, not a town. Its activity and adventure center offers the possibility of practicing about 40 other activities in addition to skiing, such as snowshoeing, snowmobiling, and dog sledding. Grau Roig has the Grandvalira Mountain Guides center, a night freestyle area, the Snowpark Peretol, and an Igloo hotel at 2,300 m altitude, for a unique winter experience. There is also a ski area for the little ones: the Kids Forest.

The Soldeu sector is suitable for skiers of all levels, and the wide slopes are a big part of this. With easy access to the Pla d'Espiolets at an altitude of 2,250 m, the resort is suitable for everyone. It attracts families with its diversified hotel offer and young people with its night bars. When the fine weather arrives, the golf course takes over. Europe's highest golf course, it has been designed with perfect technical characteristics for all levels. Par 33, 9-hole course, 2,590 m long.

Living in Canillo, in the heart of a quiet village, is ideal for families and beginners. Its gondola lift allows you to climb to 2,000 meters above sea level in the Forn Valley in just 10 minutes. In the summer, it is one of the areas of Grandvalira that offers the most leisure activities. For children, the Mon(t) Magic Family Park is a delight: free mini-golf, electric car circuit, tubbing, acrojump, archery... A few years ago, an area for children aged 3 to 11 years was created.

From the Encamp area, access to the Grandvalira ski area is via the high-tech Funicamp cable car: in 15 minutes, skiers can travel 6 km to the Solanelles ski area. This little trip in a funitunel is an experience in itself that is worth doing! Here, we are about 7 kilometers from the Andorran capital, so it is the closest access to Grandvalira to Andorra la Vella. In addition, a bus runs daily between 9am and 5pm to connect the various hotels to the Funicamp, and vice versa.

This is one of the latest products of the Merca Center group - better known for its many Hiper stores at Pas de la Case. You can find everything you need for mountain sports: equipment (ski sales and rentals), clothing (jackets, pants...) and accessories (hats, gloves...), all the leading and top-of-the-line brands... The perfect skier's outfit and sound advice to boot! A real specialist for winter, but also for summer with a nice hiking section (backpacks, shorts, boots...). Without forgetting a very current women's fashion side.

Grandvalira's mountain guides are the only qualified mountain guides in the Principality of Andorra within the ski area. The guides are qualified by the ISTA (International Snow Training Academy) in Switzerland. Customers wishing to discover the Grandvalira and Andorra landscapes on skis, and with the help of a guide, can take their first steps in the ski area, or embark on more demanding excursions to discover some of the principality's most emblematic peaks. Grandvalira also boasts ten free, signposted trails to suit all levels of physical and technical ability. They meet all safety standards and allow skiers to cohabit with alpine skiers. They are located throughout the resort: four circuits in the Grau Roig sector, one in the Pas de la Casa sector, one in the El Tarter sector, three in the Soldeu sector and a new circuit in the Encamp sector. The latter is a trail that starts at the Funicamp mid-station and climbs to the top of the lifts. The entire team of guides will be fully equipped for perfect mountain skiing.
