Snowshoeing in Andorra

Wrap up warm, get your snowshoes on and discover Andorra's snow-covered valleys and lakes. Choose between 1, 2 or 5 hour hikes depending on your ability level and fitness. Or, if you prefer, you can enjoy this fun experience in the ski resorts, on the circuits prepared and equipped for practising snowshoeing in Andorra. If you choose this option, you will need to buy the Natura Pass, which will let you enjoy snowshoeing in all the country's ski resorts: Grandvalira, Ordino Arcalís, Vallnord – Pal Arinsal and Naturland. As you can see, there are options for everyone. Which one is for you?

All you need to try snowshoeing is comfortable warm clothing (or ski clothes), gloves and snow or hiking boots. We also recommend sunglasses and sunscreen. If you choose to experience one of the guided hikes, we will provide you with snowshoes and poles. If you prefer to head out on your own and you don't have the necessary equipment, you can rent it at the Viladomat Signature shop without having to leave the hotel.
