Soldeu comes alive in the winter months as a skiing town. The skiing is on the 193km Grandvalira ski area, the largest area in the Pyrenees.
The village is at 1710 metres and the top of the ski area is at 2640 metres. The gondola from the village rises to 2250 meters where the ski and board schools as well as restaurants are located.
In 2002 the resort was constituted by Soldeu-El Tarter. Now, the two areas are linked with Grau Roig, Pas de la Casa, Encamp and Canillo. Therefore, there are 6 areas in Andorra called: Grandvalira-Encamp, Grandvalira-Canillo, Grandvalira-El Tarter, Grandvalira-Soldeu, Grandvalira-Pas de la Casa and Grandvalira-Grau Roig. Porte des Neiges, in France.
Soldeu- El Tarter retains a good village atmosphere with several excellent watering holes for apres-ski and a good selection of restaurants (and as Andorra is a duty fee zone prices are very reasonable for a ski resort!). Accommodation is good, from the smart hotels near the gondola at the top of the village to more basic apartments down the road.The skiing itself is varied with some pleasant tree-lined runs down to the resort, and wide-open pistes higher up. There is an abundance of skiing for beginners and intermediates together with some reasonable challenges on and off-piste for experts. Indeed, due to the English-speaking ski school with it's many British Basi & Canadian CSIA trained instructors, Soldeu-El Tarter is an ideal place to learn to ski or snow-board or to improve your technique.

Soldeu is one of the best budget skiing resorts in Europe, and many travelers return here annually. If you are looking for budget accommodations to complement your holiday activities, try a timeshare rental in Andorra or neighboring France and Spain. It's cheaper than booking a series of hotel rooms, but still convenient to the slopes.
