A north-facing ski area in the Valls del Nord, in Ordino: around 30 km of slopes between 1,940 and 2,650 m, known for Andorra's best snow and longest ski season.
Ordino-Arcalís is Andorra's northernmost ski resort, tucked at the far end of the Ordino valley in the Pyrenees, roughly 20 km from Andorra la Vella. Its north-facing slopes generally guarantee the country's best snow quality. The ski area spans 30.5 km of pistes split between 8 green, 6 blue, 11 red and 2 black runs, complemented by extensive freeride terrain that has earned it international renown: the resort regularly hosts Freeride World Tour stages. Reachable via the CG-3 road, with shuttle buses and free parking, Arcalís belongs to the Vallnord network alongside Pal Arinsal. Families can enjoy the dedicated Kids Forest children's circuit, while outdoor enthusiasts can try ski touring, snowshoeing or ice climbing. After a day on the slopes, Refugi les Portelles, Andorra's highest mountain restaurant, offers panoramic views over the surrounding peaks.
