Leitariegos Resort Information and Ticket Offices

The information office and ticket offices of the Valle Laciana-Leitariegos resort are at the foot of the piste, at km 10 of the LE-497 road, in the municipality of Caboalles de Abajo (Villablino), right in the Cantabrian Mountains. It is the Diputación de León's resort, with a top height of 1,800 metres and a bottom of 1,513, and here you buy the lift pass, top up the card, ask about the snow report and look for the school or equipment hire.

Opening hours

In season, information and ticket offices are open from 9:00 to 17:00. Equipment hire is open from 9:00 to 16:45; the lower-zone lifts, from 9:15 to 16:45, and the upper-zone ones, from 9:30 to 16:30. For the 2026/2027 season, the resort plans to open on 1 December 2026 and close on 4 April 2027, 125 days, although actual opening depends on the snow and each day's conditions. Out of season, the office is open from 9:00 to 14:00. Phone, 987 68 81 04; email, [email protected].

Lift passes and card

The resort publishes high-season and low-season prices. The adult one-day lift pass costs €22 in high season and €15 in low; children's, €16 and €12. The four-hour pass from the first pass through the turnstiles, €19 and €13; the beginners' one, for the learning area only, €16 and €12, and the lift-ride pass, to go up without skiing, €5. You pay the child rate up to and including age 13; from 14, adult rate, and at the ticket office they may ask for ID.

The lift pass goes on a rechargeable card that is bought at the ticket office for €2 and is not refundable; cards from previous seasons are valid too. If you buy online, on the resort's payment gateway, with the rechargeable card you avoid the queue: it is topped up at the machines. Online sales usually open every Monday for the following week, and may close when the weather is unsettled.

What is at the foot of the piste

The resort has 7.44 km of pistes: four green, seven blue, four red and a snowpark, with two chairlifts, three drag lifts and two conveyor belts. Next to the office there are car parks, a café, picnic area, restaurant and self-service, equipment hire and an injured-skier evacuation service. There are two ski and snowboard schools: the Escuela Oficial Leitariegos (689 899 615) and the Escuela de Esquí y Snowboard Valle Laciana-Leitariegos (611 484 058).

Getting there and before you go up

The resort is about 15 km from Villablino, 35 from Cangas de Narcea, 73 from Ponferrada and about 100 from León via Omaña. Before setting out check the snow report and the webcams on its website: each day's opening depends on the snow and the wind.

For the day on the pistes, see the skiing at Leitariegos listing; if you do not ski, the guided snowshoeing. In the valley, the Villablino tourist office gives information on routes and accommodation, and for sleeping nearby there are the La Bolera Rural Hotel and La Campanona.
