Skiing in Pas de la Casa means access to 210km of piste that's linked by a high-speed lift network, the majority of the ski apartments in the resort are ideally located just minutes from the slopes.
Pas de la Casa’s name literally translates to ‘the pass of the house’ referring to the fact that until the early 20th century, only a single shepherd’s hut overlooked the pass.
Well how times have changed! Developed as a ski resort in 1956, Pas de la Casa now has a reputation as one of the liveliest, youngest resorts in Andorra with a choice of bars and discos that will bring your après-ski to a whole new level.
There’s no excuse not to bring your skiing or boarding to a whole new level either. The highest resort in Andorra with lifts to over 2,500 metres, Pas de la Casa is part of the 210km Grandvalira ski area, the biggest ski area in the Pyrenees. With links to Grau Roig and Soldeu-El Tarter, you’ll find gentle green slopes for beginners, an extensive range of reds and blacks for more experienced skiers and four snow parks for boarders and freestyle fans.
Pas de la Casa also offers a range of activites with a freeride area, freestyle classes, dog mushing, snow biking, snowshoeing and other family-friendly activities.
Note: the resort doesn’t accept bus traffic which means that guests are required to walk a short distance with their luggage on arrival and departure.
