Resort Information
Like dining & shopping? Opportunities are plentiful with lots of shops offering temptingly good-value clothing, electrical goods and liquor. However, it’s Pas de la Casa’s night life that remains one of the resort’s top attractions, and a winner for group ski holidays. Scores of bars and clubs offer lively, reasonably priced nightlife, ensuring this resort lives up to its reputation as the party town of Andorra.
On the Slopes:
Beginners (4 star) - Pas de la Casa welcomes beginners. Its ski school meets at the foot of the slopes, right in the heart of the village so from most properties, you’ll never have far to walk (the first day involves a walk to the nursery slopes, approx. 150m from the foot of the slopes). The ski school employs a number of English-speakers, so communication is not a problem.
Intermediates (4 star) - The wide open slopes are easily accessible from the centre of the resort and great for improvers. A fast, six-man chairlift takes you quickly to the top which opens up to a wide variety of skiing including picturesque runs at Grau Roig. There is no shortage of top-to-bottom reds and blues for intermediates.
Advanced (3.5 star) - With the link to Soldeu, the skiing area has increased considerably, and the advanced skier has plenty to explore. Around 1.7 hectares of skiable terrain, 192km of slopes and plenty of excellent off-piste after a good snowfall.
Snowboarding (3.5 star) - This is a popular resort for boarders; its wide-open slopes make ideal terrain for cruising or mastering the basics. There is also ahalf-pipe and boarder-cross in Grau Roig and El Tarter and a snowboard park in the central descent area of Pas de la Casa. Easy access to the off-piste allows everybody to experience the unbeatable feeling of riding in deep snow.
