Halsbury Sticker

Grandvalira sits right on Andorra’s border with France, in the spectacular Pyrenees. Its duty-free status means that school ski trips to Grandvalira, and Andorra in general, offer really great value for money. And you and your students will be able to enjoy some great duty-free shopping here too! Grandvalira is the biggest ski area in the Pyrenees, with over 210km of piste spread across a number of resorts including Encamp, Grau Roig, Pas de la Casa, El Tarter, Soldeu and Canillo. This fantastic choice means that we can find a base and accommodation to really suit your group. When you’re not skiing, there are plenty of exciting après-ski activities to try.

Skiing in Grandvalira

Heavy investment in the ‘90s and early ‘00s vastly improved the quality and quantity of Grandvalira’s lift system and snowmaking capabilities. And now, its facilities are world-class. The lift system now has a capacity of up to 100,000 skiers per hour, so you won’t be spending time queuing! And the snowmaking covers around 65% of the ski area, so lack of snow won’t be an issue either. Grand Valira offers diverse skiing, which is important for school ski holidays. There are a whopping 128 slopes, with plenty suitable for beginners, intermediates and advanced skiers.
