Has anybody snowboarded in Andorra?

Question

If so how was it and can you reccomend any resorts

Answer 1

yeah, I went skiing there last winter, and it was awesome! I stayed in the area Pas de la Casa, and then did my skiing in Grandvalira. It was a great place, and there are pretty good and inexpensive places to stay there right near the pistes. Also the people there are really friendly and always willing to help you. Alot speak some english as well, if you dont know Spanish or French. If your into the nightclub scene there is a place called El Pandero on Avenue D'encamp in Pas de la Casa. It was pretty fun. All around there, there are plenty of resturants as well, you will never go hungry in Andorra!

Answer 2

I went with a group of boarders a couple of years ago, i'm a skier, we stayed in Pas De La Casa. They really enjoyed it because unlike the alps where the pistes can often be quite long and thin, the ones in Andorra were generally very wide. They also rated the off piste snow. Pas De La Casa was cheap and fun, we got a last minute deal all inclusive for around the £400 mark - inc passes - which is good. Can't remember with who though, but it was literally book and fly out from Stansted the next day. The snow was good, but we were lucky with a white out the day after we got there and then clean skiing/boarding for the rest of the week.

Answer 3

I've been skiing in Andorra. It was great. I went to a resort called Soldeo/El Tata. It doesn't have the biggest ski area that i've ever been to, but the snow is always great, as is the weather due to the high altitude. It is also very cheap out there because it is a tax-free country. If you need any new equipment i suggest you get it there.
