All of Andorra's Ski Areas To Be On One Lift Pass - InTheSnow (InTheSnow)

All three of Andorra ski areas will be on the Grandvalira Pass from next winter, the country's largest ski resort operator has announced.

Ordino Arcalis them started to be marketed as part of Grandvalira from 2018 and now it appears that Vallnord is to disappear as a separate entity (although that has not yet been confirmed) and all Andorra’s centres will be included in a 22-23 Grandvalira pass covering more than 300km (190 miles) of slopes. Two other well-known Andorran ski areas, Arinsal and Pal, also merged and joined up with separate ski area and Freeride World Tour stop Ordino Arclais (above) to market as Vallnord, covering closer to 90km of slopes with a lower-priced lift pass. It also operated more high-speed six-seat chairlifts than any other ski area on earth at the time.
