If you are staying at <b>Hotel Grau Roig</b>, which appears in the <a href=\"https://guide.michelin.com/es/es/hotels-stays/grandvalira/grau-roig-andorra-boutique-hotel-spa-5679\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">MICHELIN Guide</a>, you can visit both in a single day.</p>\n<h3>The two places you should know</h3>\n<ul>\n<li><b>Sant Vicenç d&#8217;Enclar Castle.</b> These are the remains of a fortified enclosure on a rocky outcrop overlooking Santa Coloma, in Andorra la Vella. It is the site with the most history.</li>\n<li><b>Les Bons.</b> In Encamp, an old defensive tower and the Romanesque church of Sant Romà share an outcrop above the valley. Here a tower is still standing.</li>\n</ul>\n<h3>A historical key</h3>\n<p>To understand what you see, it helps to look at the country&#8217;s political history. The pariatges signed at the end of the 13th century between the Bishop of Urgell and the Count of Foix, in 1278 and 1288, set out how power over Andorra was shared. The 1288 agreement had a direct impact on Enclar Castle, as you will see below.</p>\n<h2>Sant Vicenç d&#8217;Enclar Castle: a medieval treasure in Andorra</h2>\n<p>Also known as Enclar Castle, this site was in use for centuries, long before the medieval castle took shape. What you see today are archaeological remains and a church, not a complete fortress.</p>\n<h3>A long timeline</h3>\n<p>According to the Enciclopèdia Catalana, the area was already important for wine-growing in Roman times. These are the hill&#8217;s key moments:</p>\n<ul>\n<li><b>4th-5th centuries.</b> The hill becomes a fortified <em>castellum</em>, possibly to control a pass and the Pyrenean populations. The southern half of the plateau, some 5,600 m², is fortified with a wall or palisade and square towers.</li>\n<li><b>6th-8th centuries.</b> It serves as an administrative centre, perhaps linked to the Bishop of Urgell, and as a refuge for the population.</li>\n<li><b>After the Carolingian conquest.</b> It becomes a symbol of the power of the Frankish rulers and local counts.</li>\n<li><b>1190.</b> A document records that it was badly neglected and needed rebuilding, at least in part.</li>\n<li><b>From 1265.</b> Count Roger Bernat III of Foix drives a major reconstruction of the enclosure, with military, administrative and residential functions.</li>\n<li><b>1288.</b> The pariatge halts the work, which was never finished, and orders the castle&#8217;s demolition, especially the tower and the gate.</li>\n</ul>\n<h3>The church of Sant Vicenç d&#8217;Enclar</h3>\n<p>Next to the remains stands the church, with a rectangular plan and square apse, and a circular bell tower set against the south wall of the nave. It was restored some years ago to bring back its original appearance. Official sources disagree on its date: the Andorra la Vella tourist office places it at the end of the 7th century and presents it as the country&#8217;s oldest church, while Visit Andorra gives the 9th century as the most likely date.</p>\n<p>It has one curious detail: an Arabic inscription wishing good health to the faithful, according to the tourist office, the only trace of Caliphate influence in Andorra.</p>\n<h3>What the excavations found</h3>\n<p>Excavations documented remains of the wall, at least two possible late antique towers and, from the late medieval castle, the entrance gate, residential and service buildings and a main tower with chambers. They also unearthed grey pottery dated between the 4th and 11th centuries, needles, knives, loom weights and small glass ampoules in several tombs.</p>\n<h2>Fortresses in the mountains: the defensive role of Andorra&#8217;s castles</h2>\n<p>These buildings did not end up where they are by chance. Enclar sits on a hill overlooking Santa Coloma, and Les Bons controls the entrance to the valley heading north. Both rely on the same thing: a high, rocky point from which to watch the passage below.</p>\n<h3>More than military defence</h3>\n<p>The case of Enclar shows that a fortified enclosure could serve several purposes at once. It was a checkpoint, an administrative seat, a refuge for the population and a symbol of power. Its history as a castle ended with a political decision: the 1288 pariatge, which stopped the work and ordered the demolition.</p>\n<h3>Not to be confused</h3>\n<p>In the same Santa Coloma area you will see the so-called Torre dels Russos, and the name can be misleading. It is not a defensive tower, but a private house from the early 20th century, designed by Cèsar Martinell, which cannot be visited inside. It fits better on a route about <a href=\"https://www.hotelgrauroig.com/en/modernisme-andorra-architecture/\">Modernisme in Andorra</a>.</p>\n<h2>Andorran defensive architecture: materials and techniques</h2>\n<p>The best practical lesson comes from the Les Bons tower, also known as the Torre dels Moros and listed as an Asset of Cultural Interest. Visit Andorra dates it to the 14th century, and the Castells Catalans record considers it very possibly later than the 13th century, although there is no documentary evidence.</p>\n<h3>How the tower was built</h3>\n<ul>\n<li><b>Rock as a foundation.</b> It was raised on a rocky ledge that had to be hollowed out and levelled. The ground floor is carved into the rock, except for the south-west corner, and paved with slate slabs.</li>\n<li><b>Square plan and four floors.</b> The walls were rendered with lime on the outside.</li>\n<li><b>Entrance by a bridge.</b> Access was by a bridge on the west side, of which only the springing of the first arch survives.</li>\n<li><b>Narrow openings.</b> The upper floors have arrow slits, as well as two almost square windows on the first and second floors.</li>\n<li><b>Defence from above.</b> The third floor has a row of arrow slits and two machicolations, one of them double.</li>\n<li><b>Daily life.</b> On the first floor there are remains of a drain carved from limestone, and on the third a projecting latrine.</li>\n</ul>\n<p>The tower was probably part of a fortified house, now in ruins, located next to the church. The type of roof is unknown, though it is thought to have been wooden.</p>\n<h3>The church of Sant Romà de les Bons</h3>\n<p>The complex is completed by the 12th-century church: a rectangular nave with a barrel vault, a modern porch, saw-tooth decoration above the door and Lombard arches on the apse. It has a 16th-century mural of Christ in Majesty and a reproduction of the Romanesque paintings by the Master of Santa Coloma, most of whose originals are at the MNAC in Barcelona.

Set off from Carrer dels Barrers in Santa Coloma on a path between quarries that takes around 30 minutes. At the Sant Vicenç pass, the left-hand branch leads to the church and the archaeological site. In summer there are guided tours, booked through the Andorra la Vella Tourist Office.</p>\n<p>If adventure appeals to you, Roc d&#8217;Enclar also has a free-access via ferrata of moderate difficulty, 270 m long, with around two hours of climbing. You must bring your own safety equipment.</p>\n<h3>The Santa Coloma and La Margineda Heritage Arc</h3>\n<p>To see Enclar in more context, this route of about 5 km on tracks and paths, open all year, links the church of Santa Coloma, Roc d&#8217;Enclar, the Torre dels Russos and the Pont de la Margineda, a medieval bridge from the late 14th or early 15th century. In July and August it runs as a guided tour, with limited places at €3, so it is worth booking.</p>\n<h3>Visiting Les Bons</h3>\n<p>Visiting the Les Bons complex is free. There are guided tours in summer, and the rest of the year they can be requested through the Encamp Tourist Office. While you are there, look out for the two modern dovecotes and the water tank dug into the rock.</p>\n<h3>What to do in winter</h3>\n<p>Winter is the high season in Grau Roig, and Les Bons, in Encamp, is an excellent choice for a morning off the slopes: ask about visits beforehand. The climb to Enclar, on the other hand, depends on the state of the path, so check with the tourist office. The hotel is ten metres from the Grandvalira lifts, so you can combine the visit with a <a href=\"https://www.hotelgrauroig.com/en/luxury-ski-in-ski-out-the-comfort-and-opulence-of-being-directly-on-the-slopes/\">day on the slopes</a>.</p>\n<h3>Round off your trip</h3>\n<p>Back at Hotel Grau Roig you have the <a href=\"https://www.hotelgrauroig.com/en/luxury-spa-hotel-andorra/\">spa</a>, included for guests, and five restaurants. If food interests you, see this guide to <a href=\"https://www.hotelgrauroig.com/en/tasting-menus-andorra/\">tasting menus</a>.

Grandvalira has <a href=\"https://www.grandvalira.com/en/schools/ski-lessons/beginners\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">a green beginners&#8217; area in every sector</a>, with a gentle gradient and close to the lifts, and more than 400 instructors. With that foundation, just a few hours are enough to come down easy runs with confidence.</p>\n<h2>Lessons: what makes the biggest difference</h2>\n<p>The first day often determines whether you will end up enjoying skiing. That is why tuition deserves your closest attention, even before equipment.</p>\n<h3>Private lessons</h3>\n<p><a href=\"https://www.grandvalira.com/en/schools/ski-lessons\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Grandvalira&#8217;s private lessons</a> are available in all sectors and at all levels, in blocks of two, three or four hours, with a maximum of six people per instructor. They are the best option for a beginner who values their time: the pace adapts to you, the lesson focuses on what you need and it is the recommended way to guarantee the language of instruction. If you are travelling as a couple, you can share an instructor, provided you are at a similar level.</p>\n<p>A good plan is to book your lesson for the morning, when you are freshest, and leave the afternoon to practise what you have learned or to rest. Available times appear in the <a href=\"https://www.grandvalira.com/en/faqs/ski-snowboard-school/school-all/how-can-i-request-quote-private-lessons\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">school&#8217;s booking system</a>, so do not leave it until the last minute.</p>\n<h3>Top Class</h3>\n<p>If you want the experience with maximum comfort, <a href=\"https://www.grandvalira.com/en/schools/ski-lessons\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Top Class</a> offers a four-hour half day or an eight-hour full day. <a href=\"https://www.grandvalira.com/en/grandvalira-premium\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Grandvalira includes in this service</a> private lockers and lounges, ski trials with leading brands and a transfer from the hotel. When you book, ask for confirmation of exactly what your option includes and in which sector.</p>\n<h3>Group courses</h3>\n<p>Group courses last three hours a day and bring together skiers of the same level. They have their charm if you are motivated by learning with others, although they offer less individual attention. Multi-day courses usually start on Mondays and, in Soldeu and El Tarter, on Saturdays too. Check the dates when planning your trip.</p>\n<h2>Where to start in Grandvalira</h2>\n<p>Grandvalira has <a href=\"https://www.grandvalira.com/es/estacion/pistas\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">215 km and 140 slopes across seven sectors</a>, including <a href=\"https://www.grandvalira.com/en/schools/ski-lessons/beginners\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">24 green runs</a>, the easiest of all. You can learn in any of them, but each offers a different experience:</p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Canillo:</strong> the resort describes it as <a href=\"https://www.grandvalira.com/en/resort/slopes/canillo\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">perfect for families and beginners</a>, with easy slopes for a first experience.</li>\n<li><strong>Encamp:</strong> Grandvalira&#8217;s website considers it <a href=\"https://www.grandvalira.com/es/estacion/pistas\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">ideal for learning to ski</a>, with access by the Funicamp from the town.</li>\n<li><strong>Soldeu:</strong> it has a wide beginners&#8217; area with several drag lifts, a magic carpet and a school. Astoret is one of the most suitable blue runs for the next step.</li>\n<li><strong>El Tarter:</strong> it combines green and blue runs with a school, making it convenient for progressing. The blue Esquirol run is a good reference point.</li>\n<li><strong>Pas de la Casa:</strong> the blue Isards is a good run for progressing.</li>\n<li><strong>Grau Roig:</strong> it has <a href=\"https://www.grandvalira.com/es/estacion/pistas/grau-roig\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">slopes for all levels</a> and a high-mountain setting with no residential area. As in the other sectors, the resort indicates there is a beginners&#8217; area; ask the school which one best suits your first day.</li>\n</ul>\n<p>For an overview of the whole ski area, see our guide to <a href=\"https://www.hotelgrauroig.com/en/our-ski-slopes-in-andorra/\">ski slopes in Andorra</a>. More than the sector itself, what matters on the first day is the distance between your accommodation, the school and the learning area: the less you walk in ski boots, the better. It is one of the advantages of <a href=\"https://www.hotelgrauroig.com/en/luxury-ski-in-ski-out-the-comfort-and-opulence-of-being-directly-on-the-slopes/\">staying at the foot of the slopes</a>.</p>\n<h2>The ski pass: a detail worth clarifying</h2>\n<p>The <a href=\"https://www.grandvalira.com/en/schools/ski-lessons/beginners\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">beginner&#8217;s pass</a> gives access to the beginners&#8217; areas, the gondola in the sector you are in and some lifts in that area, but not those leading to higher-level slopes. It seems the natural choice, but it comes with an important caveat: <a href=\"https://www.grandvalira.com/en/schools/ski-lessons\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">the school does not accept it for its services</a>. To take lessons you need a day pass, a multi-day pass, the season pass or the Plus+ pass.</p>\n<p>So if you are going to book an instructor, buy a pass that is valid for the school. <a href=\"https://www.grandvalira.com/en/faqs/ski-snowboard-school/school-all/does-price-lessons-include-pass-and-equipment-hire-0\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Lesson prices do not include the pass or equipment</a>, although combined packages are available. You will find more information in our guide to <a href=\"https://www.hotelgrauroig.com/en/ski-pass-prices-andorra/\">ski passes in Andorra</a>.</p>\n<h2>Equipment: comfort and fit</h2>\n<h3>Hire</h3>\n<p>There is no point buying equipment on your first trip. Grandvalira <a href=\"https://www.grandvalira.com/en/faqs/tracks/material-clothing-rental/does-grandvalira-have-shops-where-i-can-hire-ski-and-snowboard\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">works with partner shops</a> where you can book in advance, with bronze, silver and gold ranges and the option of upgrading to higher-end equipment in store. For those seeking the very latest, <a href=\"https://www.grandvalira.com/en/grandvalira-premium\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">its Premium programme</a> also mentions rental of the newest models. Even if you are a beginner, what you want is not the most demanding ski but the one best suited to your level and weight: ask the shop technician.</p>\n<h3>Boots come first</h3>\n<p>A badly fitted boot can ruin the day. Take your time trying it on, with the technical sock you intend to wear, and walk in it before you leave the shop. It should hold your heel firmly without pressing on your toes. If it bothers you during your first run, go back to the shop: there is usually a solution.</p>\n<h3>Clothing and accessories</h3>\n<p>Dress in layers: a thermal layer, a mid-layer, and a waterproof jacket and trousers. Add a helmet, goggles, good-quality gloves and technical socks, never several pairs at once. The high-mountain sun is intense even in the cold, so do not forget sun protection. Our guide on <a href=\"https://www.hotelgrauroig.com/en/glamour-snow-what-to-pack-luxury-ski-trip-hotel-grau-roig/\">what to pack for a ski trip</a> will help you prepare your luggage with style.</p>\n<h2>What to expect in the first few days</h2>\n<p>Progress depends on practice and aptitude, but <a href=\"https://www.grandvalira.com/en/schools/ski-lessons/beginners\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">the school itself points out</a> that, after a few hours of lessons, you can come down green and even blue runs with greater confidence. A typical sequence would be:</p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Day one:</strong> getting used to the equipment, moving around, braking and using the simplest lifts.</li>\n<li><strong>Day two:</strong> linking turns on a green run, with greater control of your speed.</li>\n<li><strong>Day three onwards:</strong> growing in confidence and, if your instructor thinks it appropriate, trying your first blue run.</li>\n</ul>\n<p>For this reason, a stay of three days or more lets you truly enjoy your progress. Avoid pushing yourself: fatigue tends to lead to mistakes, and it is better to stop in good time.</p>\n<h2>How to make your first trip more enjoyable</h2>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Choose your dates carefully.</strong> Beginners&#8217; slopes are more pleasant with fewer people. Our guide on <a href=\"https://www.hotelgrauroig.com/en/when-to-ski-grandvalira-2026-2027/\">when to ski in Grandvalira</a> will help you decide.</li>\n<li><strong>Book lessons along with your accommodation.</strong> Especially at Christmas, Carnival and Easter.</li>\n<li><strong>Make the most of your breaks.</strong> <a href=\"https://www.grandvalira.com/en/grandvalira-premium\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Grandvalira&#8217;s Mountain Club</a> offers access to restaurants, terraces and VIP lounges, as well as lockers with boot warmers: check its terms if that level of service appeals.</li>\n<li><strong>Plan your recovery.</strong> Your legs will welcome some rest at the end of the day.

The 2026-27 season is <a href=\"https://www.grandvalira.com/en/resort/openning-times\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">scheduled from 4 December to 4 April</a>, depending on the snow, so barring the unexpected these festivities will fall squarely within it. It is wise to book accommodation as early as possible and to check the official programme before finalising your plans.</p>\n<p>An important note: at the time of writing, we have not found the official Christmas 2026-27 programme in <a href=\"https://www.grandvalira.com/es/noticias\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Grandvalira&#8217;s news section</a>. What follows is based on what has happened in recent seasons and serves as guidance rather than a confirmed calendar.</p>\n<h2>What kind of events usually take place at Christmas</h2>\n<h3>Torchlight and light descents</h3>\n<p>These are the defining image of the season. At Christmas 2025-26, <a href=\"https://www.elindependiente.com/economia/empresas/2025/12/18/andorra-preve-una-de-las-mejores-navidades-de-los-ultimos-anos-con-mas-de-240-kilometros-esquiables/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">the announced programme included</a> a torchlight descent in Soldeu on 31 December at 18:00 for advanced skiers, a children&#8217;s light descent in Soldeu on 3 January, and another torchlight descent in Pas de la Casa on 5 January, accompanied by a Three Kings parade and fireworks. The <a href=\"https://www.vozpopuli.com/economia/empresas/estaciones-andorranas-grandvalira-resorts-proponen-navidad-llena-actividades-todos.html\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">2023-24 programme</a> already followed a very similar pattern, which suggests a well-established tradition, although this year&#8217;s dates have yet to be confirmed.</p>\n<h3>Santa Claus and children&#8217;s activities</h3>\n<p>Last year, Santa Claus visited snow gardens and ski schools across the Grandvalira sectors on 24 December, and on 23 December Grau Roig hosted a Kids Fest with inflatables and DJs. If you are travelling with children, these events are an excellent complement to lessons. The resort&#8217;s <a href=\"https://www.grandvalira.com/es/estacion/circuitos-infantiles\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">children&#8217;s circuits</a>, free for skiers up to the age of 12, also offer an activity that is easy to fit into any day.</p>\n<h3>Music and après-ski atmosphere</h3>\n<p>For adults, the programme has revolved around DJ sessions on terraces and the L&#8217;Abarset après-ski in El Tarter, which <a href=\"https://www.elindependiente.com/economia/empresas/2026/01/07/las-estaciones-de-andorra-logran-excelentes-ocupaciones-en-navidad-con-mas-de-336-000-dias-de-esqui-el-mejor-registro-de-los-ultimos-seis-anos/amp/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">held a New Year party that lasted until 4 am</a> and a Brunch Electronik. There were also special dinners on the mountain, with events such as the Jazz Leon Classic Nights at Wine &amp; Meat by Jean Leon, in Soldeu. Places at occasions like these are limited: the jazz evening sold out.</p>\n<h3>Skiing after five o&#8217;clock</h3>\n<p>General slope hours run from 9:00 to 17:00, but there may be more options over the festive period. Last year, Tubs, in Pas de la Casa, stayed open until 20:00 from 26 December to 5 January, as announced by the resort.</p>\n<h2>How busy it gets and how to plan</h2>\n<p>Last season&#8217;s figures give a clear idea of the demand. Between 24 December 2025 and 6 January 2026, <a href=\"https://www.elindependiente.com/economia/empresas/2026/01/07/las-estaciones-de-andorra-logran-excelentes-ocupaciones-en-navidad-con-mas-de-336-000-dias-de-esqui-el-mejor-registro-de-los-ultimos-seis-anos/amp/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Andorra&#8217;s resorts exceeded 336,000 skier days</a>, the best figure in six years. The peak day was 29 December, with 25,412 skiers in Grandvalira. Snow was good too, with an average of more than 190 km open, a figure that depends on each winter and cannot be taken for granted.</p>\n<p>In that context, a few simple decisions make all the difference:</p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Start early.</strong> The first hours of the day are the best for enjoying clear slopes and for crossing between sectors.</li>\n<li><strong>Arrange your ski pass in advance.</strong> The <a href=\"https://www.grandvalira.com/es/forfait/mobile-pass\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Mobile Pass</a> is activated from the official app and spares you the ticket office. You will find the details in our guide to <a href=\"https://www.hotelgrauroig.com/en/ski-pass-prices-andorra/\">ski passes in Andorra</a>.</li>\n<li><strong>Book anything with limited places.</strong> Ski school, special dinners and snow experiences should all be settled in good time.</li>\n<li><strong>Choose your lunch hour carefully.</strong> Eating earlier or later helps you avoid the busiest moments on the mountain.</li>\n</ul>\n<h2>When to book and which dates to choose</h2>\n<p>The festivities are concentrated in a few weeks and the most sought-after accommodation is the first to fill up. There is no general deadline: if your plans are settled, the most sensible course is to book as soon as you can, especially if you need several rooms or a stay that includes New Year&#8217;s Eve.</p>\n<h3>19 to 24 December</h3>\n<p>The <a href=\"https://www.service-public.gouv.fr/particuliers/vosdroits/F31952?lang=en\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">French school holidays begin on 19 December</a>, and the days before Christmas Eve are usually a good option for those who want a festive atmosphere ahead of the main festive dates. Christmas Day falls on a Friday, which may also attract long-weekend breaks.</p>\n<h3>25 to 30 December</h3>\n<p>This is the busiest week if last year is anything to go by, when the peak day came on the 29th. It is also a very attractive option for families, because children have more activities and the mood is very festive.</p>\n<h3>New Year&#8217;s Eve and New Year&#8217;s Day</h3>\n<p>In 2026, New Year&#8217;s Eve falls on a Thursday and New Year&#8217;s Day on a Friday, so the holiday may stretch to Sunday 3 January. If you want to experience the torchlight descent and a special dinner, plan the day calmly: ski in the morning, keep the afternoon for rest and confirm both your table and any transport you need in advance.</p>\n<h3>2 to 6 January</h3>\n<p>The French holidays <a href=\"https://www.service-public.gouv.fr/particuliers/vosdroits/F31952?lang=en\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">end on 4 January</a> and, traditionally, Epiphany closes the period for Spanish families. If you are interested in the Pas de la Casa parade, check whether it is being repeated this year. From 7 January the crowds clearly thin; you will find more detail in our guide on <a href=\"https://www.hotelgrauroig.com/en/when-to-ski-grandvalira-2026-2027/\">when to ski in Grandvalira</a>.</p>\n<h2>Ideas to round off the break</h2>\n<h3>For those who do not ski every day</h3>\n<p>The resort&#8217;s <a href=\"https://www.grandvalira.com/es/experiencias\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">2026-27 experiences</a> include snowmobiles, dog sledding and snowshoeing in several sectors, as well as the Màgic Gliss and the zip wire in Canillo. These activities combine very well with ski days, weather permitting.</p>\n<h3>Away from the snow</h3>\n<p>If you fancy a change of scene one day, <a href=\"https://www.hotelgrauroig.com/en/a-relaxing-day-at-the-spa-in-caldea-andorra/\">Caldea</a> is one of the country&#8217;s classic visits, and our guide to <a href=\"https://www.hotelgrauroig.com/en/29-things-to-do-in-andorra/\">things to do in Andorra</a> gathers further ideas for those days. For couples, you may also find inspiration in our suggested <a href=\"https://www.hotelgrauroig.com/en/romantic-getaway-andorra/\">romantic break in Andorra</a>.</p>\n<h2>Choosing a base for these dates</h2>\n<p>At Christmas the criteria shift a little: the greater the crowds, the more valuable it is to stay close to the snow and not depend on the car. If the New Year&#8217;s Eve events are the centre of your trip, bear in mind where they have been held in previous editions: Soldeu for the descent on the 31st and Pas de la Casa for the one on 5 January. If you are looking for peace, a sector with no town centre will let you enjoy the festivities differently. Our guide on <a href=\"https://www.hotelgrauroig.com/en/where-to-stay-grandvalira-sector/\">where to stay in Grandvalira</a> will help you decide.</p>\n<p>Hotel Grau Roig, featured in the <a href=\"https://guide.michelin.com/es/es/hotels-stays/grandvalira/grau-roig-andorra-boutique-hotel-spa-5679\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">MICHELIN Guide</a>, stands in the heart of the Grau Roig sector, with a <a href=\"https://www.hotelgrauroig.com/en/luxury-spa-hotel-andorra/\">spa</a> and several <a href=\"https://www.hotelgrauroig.com/en/our-restaurants/\">restaurants</a>. To find out about availability on these dates and whether any special offer is planned, it is best to ask the hotel directly.</p>\n<p>Finally, before travelling, check the <a href=\"https://www.grandvalira.com/es/estacion/estado-pistas\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">slope conditions</a> and the resort&#8217;s final programme.

The <a href=\"https://events.grandvalira.com/en/grandvalirasoldeuworldcup\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">official programme</a> sets the two runs of each day at 9:30 and 12:30. Public access conditions and transport arrangements have not been published so far, so this guide separates what is confirmed from what is worth checking before you travel.</p>\n<h2>What we know about the 2027 Soldeu World Cup</h2>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Competition:</strong> FIS women&#8217;s Alpine Ski World Cup.</li>\n<li><strong>Saturday 6 March:</strong> giant slalom. First run at 9:30 and second at 12:30.</li>\n<li><strong>Sunday 7 March:</strong> slalom. First run at 9:30 and second at 12:30.</li>\n<li><strong>Venue:</strong> Avet slope, Soldeu sector, Grandvalira.</li>\n</ul>\n<p>FIS added Andorra to the calendar at its spring meeting in Portorož and, <a href=\"https://www.nevasport.com/noticias/art/71086/la-inspeccion-a-la-avet-pone-la-cuenta-atras-a-la-copa-del-mundo-de-esqui-en-grandvalira/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">in July 2026</a>, its technical staff inspected the Avet with the organising committee to approve the start points and race operations. Times may change according to the weather and the jury&#8217;s decisions, as is usual at these events, so check the programme a few days beforehand.</p>\n<h2>Why it is worth the trip: the Avet slope</h2>\n<p>According to <a href=\"https://www.nevasport.com/noticias/art/70808/la-fis-incluye-finalmente-a-andorra-en-la-copa-del-mundo-de-esqui-de-2027/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Nevasport</a>, this will be Andorra&#8217;s seventh World Cup event, after those of 2012, 2016, 2019, 2023, 2024 and 2026. Soldeu has become such a regular fixture that David Hidalgo, head of the organising committee, describes it as an almost permanent venue on the circuit. The Avet hosted the first race, in 2012, and was part of the 2019 and 2023 Finals.</p>\n<p><a href=\"https://www.nevasport.com/gatos/art/55975/pistas-miticas-avet-soldeu/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Nevasport&#8217;s profile</a> describes it as a black run with a vertical drop of about 416 metres, between 1,850 and 2,266 metres of altitude, an average gradient of 37% and two pronounced steep pitches separated by a gentler section. Its north-west orientation tends to leave the snow hard in the morning. The terrain is made for the technical disciplines, and much of the course can be seen from the village itself, an obvious advantage for spectators.</p>\n<h3>How to enjoy each race</h3>\n<p>In the <strong>giant slalom</strong>, skiers carve wider turns at greater speed: watch how they handle the change of rhythm between the steep pitches. The <strong>slalom</strong>, with its tighter gates, is a test of precision and reflexes, and it is often at its most thrilling when watched at close quarters. As both events have two runs, the excitement builds in the second, when the start order and combined times decide the standings.</p>\n<p>Carles Visa, manager of the Andorran Ski Federation, named <a href=\"https://www.nevasport.com/noticias/art/70808/la-fis-incluye-finalmente-a-andorra-en-la-copa-del-mundo-de-esqui-de-2027/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Carla Mijares, Iria Medina and Claudia García</a> as skiers for local fans to follow. The final list of participants will be known closer to the event.</p>\n<h2>Tickets and public access</h2>\n<p>For now, the official site gives no details of tickets, spectator areas or hospitality services. For these matters, it refers visitors to a contact form. Until there is official information, it is best not to assume whether access will be free or paid, or whether there will be reserved areas.</p>\n<p>Check the <a href=\"https://events.grandvalira.com/en/grandvalirasoldeuworldcup\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">event website</a> regularly and sign up to Grandvalira&#8217;s channels for updates. If you are travelling with a group, write to the organisers well in advance.</p>\n<h2>How to reach Soldeu on race day</h2>\n<p>The 2027 arrangements have not yet been published. A useful pointer is what the organisers did at the <a href=\"https://events.grandvalira.com/en/grandvalirasoldeuworldcup/how-to-get-there\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">2024 edition</a>: they recommended public transport, advised those coming by car to leave it in El Tarter and laid on a free bus over the race weekend. There is no guarantee this will be repeated, but it does suggest that car access to Soldeu will be restricted.</p>\n<p>The times published on that same page are for guidance:</p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>From Andorra la Vella:</strong> about 19 km on the CG-2, around 26 minutes.</li>\n<li><strong>From Pas de la Casa:</strong> around 20 minutes.</li>\n<li><strong>From the Envalira Tunnel exit, next to Grau Roig:</strong> around 15 minutes.</li>\n</ul>\n<p>On a March weekend with racing, expect considerably more traffic. Leave early, especially if you want to see the first run, and check <a href=\"https://www.mobilitat.ad\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">mobilitat.ad</a> and our guide to <a href=\"https://www.hotelgrauroig.com/en/andorra-road-conditions-traffic/\">road conditions in Andorra</a>. If you are coming from abroad, see also the <a href=\"https://www.hotelgrauroig.com/en/airports-near-andorra-grau-roig/\">airports near Andorra</a> and your transfer options.</p>\n<h3>Arriving on skis</h3>\n<p><a href=\"https://www.grandvalira.com/es/estacion/pistas\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">All of Grandvalira&#8217;s sectors are connected</a>, so in principle you can reach Soldeu on skis. It is an appealing idea if you are staying in another sector, although it depends on the state of the ski area that day and any restrictions the race imposes. Allow plenty of time and confirm which slopes and lifts are open in the morning. Do not assume that the Avet or its surroundings will be available for skiing during the event.</p>\n<h2>How to plan the weekend</h2>\n<h3>Book early</h3>\n<p>The races fall in the middle of the season, on a weekend that will draw teams, press and fans. It is best to arrange accommodation and transfers as far ahead as possible, on flexible terms while not all the details are known.</p>\n<h3>Stay a few extra days</h3>\n<p>The second run starts at 12:30, which leaves much of the afternoon free. Ideally, arrive on the Thursday or Friday, ski before the races and leave on the Monday, once the departing traffic has eased. Grandvalira has <a href=\"https://www.grandvalira.com/es/estacion/pistas\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">215 km and 140 slopes</a>, so there is plenty of terrain away from the competition area. You can read more in our guide to <a href=\"https://www.hotelgrauroig.com/en/our-ski-slopes-in-andorra/\">ski slopes in Andorra</a>.</p>\n<h3>Dress warmly for spectating</h3>\n<p>Watching a race calls for warmer clothing than skiing. Bring thermal layers, boots with good grip, gloves, sunglasses and sun protection. March in the Pyrenees can bring either intense sun or a storm, and you will spend hours on your feet on the snow.</p>\n<h2>A race weekend from Grau Roig</h2>\n<p>Grau Roig is about 15 minutes by car from Soldeu, and that distance has its appeal: the calm of a setting <a href=\"https://www.grandvalira.com/es/estacion/pistas/grau-roig\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">without a residential area</a> after a lively day in Soldeu. <a href=\"https://www.hotelgrauroig.com/\">Hotel Grau Roig</a>, featured in the <a href=\"https://guide.michelin.com/es/es/hotels-stays/grandvalira/grau-roig-andorra-boutique-hotel-spa-5679\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">MICHELIN Guide</a>, is located <a href=\"https://www.hotelgrauroig.com/en/contact-us/\">right in the resort</a>, and you can ask its team about transfer options for the weekend. In the evening, you can look forward to an unhurried dinner at its <a href=\"https://www.hotelgrauroig.com/en/our-restaurants/\">restaurants</a>, or a session at the <a href=\"https://www.hotelgrauroig.com/en/luxury-spa-hotel-andorra/\">spa</a> to warm up after the day.</p>\n<p>If you would like to build on your plans, read our guide to <a href=\"https://www.hotelgrauroig.com/en/elite-sporting-events-andorra/\">elite sporting events in Andorra</a>.

It is the place to be if you want to ski surrounded by scenery, with the whole ski area within reach and no village in between.</p>\n<p>The resort itself presents it as the most unspoilt sector in Grandvalira. This guide brings together what you need to know to prepare your days here: the terrain, what to do besides skiing and how to get around. If you are comparing it with other areas, see also our guide on <a href=\"https://www.hotelgrauroig.com/en/where-to-stay-grandvalira-sector/\">where to stay in Grandvalira</a>.</p>\n<h2>What the Grau Roig sector is like</h2>\n<p>The sector lies at around 2,100 metres and opens out between broad slopes, with the surroundings of the Pessons lakes among its most recognisable landscapes. With no town here, the experience differs from that of other parts of the resort: the rhythm is set by the snow and the light, not by traffic or shop hours.</p>\n<p>It forms part of a ski area of <a href=\"https://www.grandvalira.com/es/estacion/pistas\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">215 km and 140 runs</a>, so you can devote the day to its slopes or link up with the neighbouring sectors. The exact numbers of runs and lifts can vary from one season to the next, so it is best to check them on the <a href=\"https://www.grandvalira.com/es/estacion/mapa\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">official map</a> and the <a href=\"https://www.grandvalira.com/es/estacion/estado-pistas\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">slope status</a> page.</p>\n<h2>Where to ski in Grau Roig</h2>\n<h3>Runs for every level</h3>\n<p>The resort states that there are <a href=\"https://www.grandvalira.com/es/estacion/pistas/grau-roig\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">runs for all levels</a> here, which allows a group with differing experience to share the day without drifting too far apart. Data published in 2023 showed a mix of green, blue, red and black runs, with a green run in the Pessons area. Before choosing your route, check the current map to see which runs suit your level. For an overview of the whole area, see our guide to the <a href=\"https://www.hotelgrauroig.com/en/our-ski-slopes-in-andorra/\">ski slopes in Andorra</a>.</p>\n<h3>Speed Skiing: the Kilómetro Lanzado</h3>\n<p>The Riberal piste is the <a href=\"https://www.grandvalira.com/es/estacion/pistas\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">venue for the FIS Speed Skiing World Cup</a>, known in Spanish as Kilómetro Lanzado, a discipline in which skiers seek maximum straight-line speed. According to figures published in 2023, it is about 900 metres long with a 200-metre vertical drop. We have not yet been able to confirm any events or dates for 2026-27, so if you are interested in attending, check the official calendar before you travel.</p>\n<h3>Freeride and ski touring</h3>\n<p>Grau Roig has <a href=\"https://www.grandvalira.com/es/estacion/pistas/grau-roig\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">freeride areas and three marked ski-touring circuits</a>. The circuits are an excellent way into <a href=\"https://www.hotelgrauroig.com/en/ski-touring-andorra/\">ski touring</a> on a marked route, while freeride demands training, safety equipment and a careful reading of snow conditions. Before leaving the marked runs, check the avalanche bulletin. The hotel&#8217;s website mentions <a href=\"https://www.hotelgrauroig.com/en/winter-activities-andorra/\">guides and instructors</a>, an option you can enquire about directly with the team.</p>\n<h3>Snowpark</h3>\n<p>This is one of the resort&#8217;s three sectors with a snowpark: the <a href=\"https://www.grandvalira.com/es/estacion/pistas\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Sunrise Park Xavi</a>. It is a good plan for those looking for something beyond classic descents, and also a splendid distraction for teenagers with some ability.</p>\n<h2>Grau Roig with the family</h2>\n<p>Children have <a href=\"https://www.grandvalira.com/es/estacion/circuitos-infantiles\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Kids Forest, a circuit with obstacles and themed characters</a> designed to improve turning and balance. The resort&#8217;s children&#8217;s circuits are free and open to skiers up to the age of 12. Its four characters, from Mona the marmot to Nae the chamois, represent different levels of progress, making for an entertaining way of measuring improvement.</p>\n<p>If you are travelling with younger children, you might consider the Imaginarium Ski School, which is listed among the hotel&#8217;s snow options, and the hotel&#8217;s <a href=\"https://www.hotelgrauroig.com/en/kids-club/\">Kids Club</a> for the hours away from the slopes.</p>\n<h2>What to do besides skiing</h2>\n<p>The resort&#8217;s <a href=\"https://www.grandvalira.com/es/experiencias\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">2026-27 experiences programme</a> includes several activities in Grau Roig:</p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https://www.hotelgrauroig.com/en/snowmobile-andorra/\">Snowmobiles</a>, to explore the landscape in a different way.</li>\n<li><a href=\"https://www.hotelgrauroig.com/en/dog-sledding-mushing-andorra/\">Mushing</a>, on a sled pulled by dogs.</li>\n<li><a href=\"https://www.hotelgrauroig.com/en/snowshoeing-andorra/\">Snowshoeing</a>, a peaceful option that also suits non-skiers.</li>\n<li>Packs combining several activities.</li>\n</ul>\n<p>These activities usually depend on the weather and the state of the snow. Check availability in advance, especially on key dates. The hotel&#8217;s <a href=\"https://www.hotelgrauroig.com/en/winter-activities-andorra/\">snow activities page</a> also lists them, so you can ask for information there.</p>\n<h2>Where to eat on the mountain</h2>\n<p>The sector&#8217;s official page highlights the <a href=\"https://www.grandvalira.com/es/estacion/pistas/grau-roig\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Llac de Pessons restaurant</a>, by the lake, a highly recommended stop for a break with a view. On very busy days it is wise to book ahead. The choice of other establishments on the slopes may vary from one season to another, so it is worth confirming it on the resort&#8217;s website.</p>\n<p>At the end of the day, the <a href=\"https://www.hotelgrauroig.com/en/our-restaurants/\">restaurants at Hotel Grau Roig</a>, among them La Vaquería, El Teatro del Vino and La Marmita, offer an alternative that requires no travel at all. The wine cellar holds more than 300 labels.</p>\n<h2>Getting there and getting around</h2>\n<h3>Road access</h3>\n<p>From Andorra la Vella it is about 25 km along the CG-2, a little over 30 minutes in normal conditions. From the French border, you arrive via the Envalira tunnel area, with Pas de la Casa as the first sector along the way. In winter, always check the road conditions and carry the appropriate equipment.</p>\n<p>The sector has a car park and, as the resort points out, <a href=\"https://www.grandvalira.com/es/estacion/pistas/grau-roig\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">you can practically ski straight from it</a>. If you would rather not drive, the hotel mentions private chauffeured transfers on its <a href=\"https://www.hotelgrauroig.com/en/contact-us/\">location page</a>, which you can ask about when booking.</p>\n<h3>Links with other sectors</h3>\n<p>From Grau Roig you can ski towards Pas de la Casa as well as towards Soldeu and the rest of the ski area. Bear in mind that <a href=\"https://guias-viajar.com/europa/turismo-en-andorra/consejos-esquiar-grandvalira/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">a queue can form by mid-morning at the chairlift linking Grau Roig with Soldeu</a>, so if you plan to cross, it is best to do so early. Allow plenty of time for the return too, because the slopes generally close at 17:00.</p>\n<h2>Staying in the sector itself</h2>\n<p>Staying in Grau Roig means starting the day on the snow, with no journeys or waiting to park, and enjoying the mountain once the day visitors have gone. Hotel Grau Roig, featured in the <a href=\"https://guide.michelin.com/es/es/hotels-stays/grandvalira/grau-roig-andorra-boutique-hotel-spa-5679\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">MICHELIN Guide</a>, stands in the sector and offers <a href=\"https://www.hotelgrauroig.com/en/our-hotel-rooms/\">rooms</a> and a <a href=\"https://www.hotelgrauroig.com/en/luxury-spa-hotel-andorra/\">spa</a> to unwind in after skiing.</p>\n<p>If you are still deciding on dates, bear in mind that Grandvalira&#8217;s 2026-27 season is <a href=\"https://www.grandvalira.com/en/resort/openning-times\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">scheduled from 4 December 2026 to 4 April 2027</a>, depending on the
