Ski area Grandvalira

The Grandvalira ski area, with its same-name lift pass, offer an entire 210 km of piste to enjoy! This ski area is the largest in Europe located outside of the Alps and came into being thanks to the connection between the Soldeu/El Tarter and Pas de la Casa/Grau Roig areas.

Winter sports fans can use 71 lifts to make their way into the ski area and can be found not just in Canillo, but also in El Tarter, Grau Roig and Pas de la Casa. The Grandvalira ski area is quite diverse - here, beginners and experts alike will certainly get their money's worth due to an extremely wide selection of pistes. This way, you don't have to ski the same piste twice in one day (unless you want to you!).

Especially ambitious winter sports fans can anticipate numerous off-piste opportunities, a mogul piste obstacle course, several funparks, boardercross runs, and FIS race tracks.

Wi-Fi hotspots can be found throughout the entire ski area, providing winter sports fans with internet access. Since February 2019, you can also use your Grandvalira lift pass in the Ordino Acalís ski area, with 30 further kilometres of piste and 15 lifts.

Night skiing Canillo

Winter sports fans who have not had enough of skiing or snowboarding during the day will also find night ski pistes in the diverse Granvalira ski area. Approx. 10 minutes by car from Canillo, you can find the night ski piste at Le Peretol on an altitude of 1,960 m. The piste is approx. 500 m long and is located directly at Peretol tow lift and "Sunset Park Peretol" snowpark. The flood light illuminates the pistes every Tuesday to Sunday evening from 17:00 - 22:00.

In Pas de La Casa you can also find a night ski piste that can be reached by car from Canillo within approx. 20 minutes. The piste "Tubs" at the 4-person-chair lift "La Solana" invites night skiing enthusiasts to enjoy night-time skiing fun on a length of approx. 1.5 km.

Après ski Canillo

Canillo is not far from Grandvalira's après-ski centre: Pas de la Casa. Here party animals can celebrate till dawn! But you can also have a good night out in Canillo's various bars. The pub "Camping Pla" regularly organises parties, which are especially popular among the locals. A highlight in Canillo is certainly the Mont Magic Zip-Lining. At 40 m altitude with up to 80 km/h and a length of 550 m it's a great experience after skiing! Additionally, you can spend all remaining energy at the "Palau de Gel", a sports and community centre, playing tennis or squash, skating, and swimming. After a good day of sports, you can taste some traditional Andorran dishes. Why not try "Tupi" cheese? This regional speciality is made in a jug and left to mature with liquor and garlic.

Those who prefer to take in cultural highlights will find a few medieval sights in Canillo, like its church or the old mill.

Spending a winter holiday in Andorra also means enjoying unique winter wonderlands outside of the Alps. Therefore, be sure to take a walk through the wintry landscape or visit the surrounding cities like Soldeu or El Tarter.
