Grandvalira
The biggest ski area in the Pyrenees: more than 200 km of sunny runs across linked sectors, with duty-free prices in the valley.
Terrain
Wide, mostly open slopes above the treeline, split into sectors that suit every level. Long intermediate cruising is the strength; the Pas de la Casa side stays snow-sure late, while Grau Roig and Soldeu hold the prettier tree-lined runs.
Best suited to: Beginner, Intermediate, Advanced
