Who it's for
Beginner and intermediate riders

The Astún snowpark has a central jibbing area for beginner and intermediate riders, two jumps on the right of 6 to 12 metres depending on the snow, one of 4 to 6 on the left and a small halfpipe with gentle shapes for practising transitions. It is used with the Astún-Candanchú lift pass.

What it is like

The resort presents it as one of its great attractions: a space for snowboarding and freestyle, with features and obstacles such as jumps, rails and bars, designed for progressing safely whether you are starting out or already have some level. It is maintained by a team of the resort's shapers, and its layout changes with conditions and the amount of snow: the jump sizes are approximate.

Safety rules

Astún reminds riders of a few rules for the snowpark:

  • A helmet is not compulsory, but it strongly recommends one.
  • Use only the features at your own level and respect the difficulty signs.
  • Follow the instructions of the park staff.
  • Avoid headphones: you need to hear others.
  • Before dropping in, check there is nobody on the take-off or landing line.
  • To rest or check your equipment, leave the jump lines.
  • Check your board and bindings before going in.

The FIS rules of conduct also apply throughout the resort.

2026-27 lift pass

There is no separate entrance fee: the Astún-Candanchú day lift pass is valid. At the ticket office, a day costs €59.50 for adults and €50.50 for children (6 to 11 years) and seniors (65 and over); online, €54.50 and €46.50. The half day, from 13:00, costs €44.50 and is only sold at the ticket office from 12:45. On non-holiday Fridays there is a blue day rate, €54 for adults. The beginner's pass is only valid on the introductory lifts listed by the resort, so for the snowpark count on the full one. Medical assistance is not included: you ask for it when you buy.

Getting there and parking

The resort is in the Astún valley (22889 Astún, Huesca). At the base of the resort there is parking, which can be booked from €5 a day, and machines to collect your lift pass next to the ticket offices. Equipment hire is at the Las Marmotas store, at the foot of the pistes; the official school is about 200 metres from the car park.

To combine with
