Dónde: La Massana

Pal Arinsal is the La Massana ski resort: two sectors, Pal and Arinsal, linked by an aerial tramway, and a cable car that leaves from the very centre of the village. If you sleep in La Massana, you can ski without taking the car.

## Two sectors and three lifts that matter

The resort advertises more than 63 km of slopes. From the village the La Massana cable car climbs, 2,250 metres long with 675 of vertical drop, with sixteen-person cabins. By car, you reach Pal along the CG-4 and Arinsal along the CG-5, where another cable car leaves, the Els Orriols one. An aerial tramway crosses from one sector to the other. Its website gives different figures for the number of lifts depending on the page, so we do not repeat them here.

## Dynamic pricing and half days

The 2026-27 season runs from 4 December to 4 April, from 9:00 to 17:00. The day price is dynamic: it changes depending on when you buy, and online it is up to 15% cheaper than at the ticket office. The half day, from 13:00, costs from €40.50. Under-5s and over-75s do not pay; ages 65 to 69 pay €29.50 and ages 70 to 74, €25. Insurance is extra. From two days the lift pass is also valid at Ordino Arcalís, and from four it includes a day at Grandvalira.

## Two schools

There are two schools, one at Pal and one at Arinsal. The one-day beginner course, three hours, costs €59 from age 6; the three-to-five-day group courses, €147 for adults and juniors and €133 for children, and the weekend one, €98.50. Private lessons, from €115 for two hours. For hire, the resort refers you to the many shops in La Massana, Pal and Arinsal, without giving prices.

## Parking

Ten free car parks at the sector entrances, with room for 6,600 cars, and motorhome areas at Pal-Caubella, Coll de la Botella and Comallemple. A free bus links the resort with La Massana.
