1 The Christmas agenda
The Andorran Grandvalira station will offer a minimum of 140 ski kilometres with 85 slopes and more than 85 percent of the ski lifts in operation during the Christmas period thanks to the new rainfall before the weekend, according to a press release.
The low temperatures recorded in recent days have allowed the inivation network to be maintained that has worked practically without interruption and has favored the reinforcement of connections between sectors and the extension of the skiable surface in some paths and in the different areas of debutants of the Andorran skiing domain.
Grandvalira has the services of the Ski and Snowboard and Freestyle Schools that are distributed throughout the six sectors of the domain and plans to open all of its children's circuits for Christmas.
The Mont Magic of the Canillo sector are currently operational and in the next few days the Imaginarium circuit of the Grau Roig sector and the Bababoom Circus circuit of the El Tarter sector will be available to smaller skiers. In addition, below we present the schedule of activities of this ski resort for these holidays:
