Night sledging · 2.5 km lit · Thursdays and Saturdays · From age 12 · €46

On Thursdays and Saturdays, once the resort has closed, Formigal starts up the eight-seat Sallent chairlift again just for those who sign up. It climbs to Cantal, serves an afternoon snack at the Cantal Panoramic and brings the participants down on wooden sledges, or on their skis, along a lit 2.5 km run to Sextas. It ends at the après-ski of Marchica.
What the evening is like
You meet at the Sallent chairlift, next to the Sextas building. At the top, in Cantal, the resort serves what it calls a "gourmet tardeo", a snack in the panoramic restaurant as night falls. Then, after a brief explanation, the descent begins along the lit Río run. If you prefer, you can ski down it, as a night descent. The last stop is Marchica, with music and a DJ at the foot of the slopes; entry is included for over-18s.
Schedule

17:15, meeting point at the Sallent chairlift.
17:30, ascent.
18:00, snack in Cantal.
19:15, descent along the lit run.
20:15, arrival at Marchica.

About three hours in all. For it to go ahead at least 45 people are needed, and the maximum is 80.
What it costs and who can take part
€46 per person, with health assistance included; ski equipment is not included. A helmet is compulsory. Under-12s and over-64s cannot take part. Under-16s need their guardians' permission and an adult who accompanies them and is responsible at all times.
Book online until 18:30 the day before; after that, ask on 974 498 282, where they also deal with large groups who want another day of the week. Until that sales cut-off you can cancel at no cost; after it, it is charged in full. If the minimum number of participants is not reached, the weather is bad or the snow is not in good condition, the resort cancels it and refunds the money.
What to bring
The resort recommends a hat, gloves, thermal trousers, an anorak, après-ski or mountain boots and snow goggles: at night, in Cantal, it is cold. If you are skiing that week, the free bus to the slopes links the Formigal development with Sextas, and the page on skiing at Formigal-Panticosa has the rest of the resort.
