Lifts for pedestrians · €23.50 · For those accompanying skiers · Sledges and snowshoes for hire

If there is someone in the group who does not ski, Baqueira sells a walking lift pass for €23.50, at the ticket office only, to ride the pedestrian lifts with the rest. At the top, the terraces of the resort's restaurants await. It is the way for the grandparent, the partner or the friend who does not ski to share the day in the mountains and meet the others at lunchtime.
What to do at the top
Ask at the ticket office which lifts admit pedestrians that day and up to what altitude: it depends on the snow, the wind and the area that is open, and the resort does not publish it in advance. Ask too about the way down: the walking lift pass is for the lifts, not for walking on the runs.
For children, Baqueira Store rents sledges for €11.50 and snowshoes for €19.50 a day, at its shops at Baqueira 1500, Beret, 1800, Bonaigua and the Hotel Montarto: use them only in the off-piste areas they indicate, never on the ski runs.
When and how much
The 2026-27 season runs from Saturday 28 November 2026 to Sunday 4 April 2027, if conditions allow. The walking lift pass costs €23.50 and cannot be bought online: you have to go to the resort's ticket offices. The very young and the elderly have a special rate of €8 at the resort; confirm at the ticket office whether it also applies to the walking pass.
Where to park
Baqueira has free car parks at Orri 1800, Pla de Beret, Bonaigua and La Peülla; the outdoor car park at Baqueira 1500 becomes paid from the 2026-27 season (€1 an hour, €12 a day at most, according to Naut Aran's tender). If you are going to go up from 1500, the Gondola Car Park, at the foot of the gondola, is paid, with online booking. You have the details at Baqueira car parks.
Another option without skis: Montgarri
For those who prefer to walk, a classic snowshoe excursion starts from the Pla de Beret to the sanctuary of Montgarri, a village abandoned in the mid-20th century at the end of the Pla de Beret. Visit Val d'Aran presents it as a low-difficulty route to do as a family: you follow the track on the left bank of the Noguera Pallaresa, normally on packed snow, among open meadows and black pine forest. Next to the Romanesque sanctuary, the Refugi Amics de Montgarri has a bar and restaurant. You return the same way: the track on the other bank is the one for dog sleds and snowmobiles.
If you are looking for a guided outing, see the guided snowshoeing to the Estanys de Baciver, which also leave from the Pla de Beret. And if you prefer a village plan, the church of Sant Andrèu in Salardú is about 5 km from Baqueira.
