Multiusos and El Chivo Cafés

Eating on the slopes

The Alto Campoo resort has two places to eat without taking your boots off, both run within the resort itself and open only in the ski season. The resort itself sums them up as the place for a good sandwich, a combined plate or the set menu. There are no other restaurants at slope level: the next place to sit down for a meal is already in the valley, on the way down towards Reinosa.

The Multiusos at Calgosa

In the Calgosa area, at 1,650 metres, the Multiusos building is the heart of the resort: the ticket offices, equipment hire and, on the ground floor, the café and self-service, with room for 300 diners. It serves burgers, portions, pinchos, combined plates and a set menu. It is the practical place to eat as a family or with children learning on the green slopes of Calgosa, because it is next to the car park and the beginners' area.

It is open Monday to Friday from 8:00 to 16:45, and on Saturdays, Sundays and public holidays from 7:00 to 16:15. From 18 March it switches to spring hours, 8:00 to 16:00.

El Chivo, at 1,850 metres

Up at the El Chivo area, at 1,850 metres, there is a second café which the resort presents as the place for the mid-morning stop. You get there skiing down the blue runs in the upper area, and it is good for a coffee or a sandwich without going down to Calgosa. It is open daily from 9:30 to 16:15 during the season, and from 18 March, from 9:00 to 14:00. If you are only coming for a stroll, the chairlift also drops you in the upper area.

Before you go

The resort does not publish prices or a detailed menu for either café, nor whether they take bookings. Bear in mind that everything depends on the season: if the resort has not opened for lack of snow, they do not open either. Check the resort's report before setting out and the state of the Calgosa car park, which fills up at weekends.

If you prefer to sit down to a spoon-and-bowl meal, go down to the restaurant at Complejo Puente Romano, in the valley, where they serve cocido montañés. For general information about the resort, Infocantur answers on 942 310 708.
