Arcalis may be the least known of the Andorran ski resorts in the UK market, but it is the most reliable for snow.

 

Not only is its natural snowfall higher than elsewhere in the principality, but nearly all its skiing is above 2000m and many of its slopes face north. Snow preservation and quality are therefore good, and snow-making now covers about half of the area.
