The beautiful mountain landscapes, combined with the thick winter snow, are one of the most captivating attractions of Pallars Sobirà, and in fact, one of the main reasons why year after year it attracts countless visitors eager to have fun while sliding down the snow practicing their favorite sport. With a special charm that transforms its green landscapes into blankets of white during the winter months, Pallars Sobirà is an ideal destination if you're looking for snow sports in a privileged setting.

Obviously, the star sport in the area is alpine skiing, and to enjoy it, you have several resorts spread throughout the area that will make it very easy to practice and enjoy your sport in perfectly equipped facilities. There are three resorts very close to each other: Port Ainé (ideal for beginners), Spot Esquí (friendly and family-friendly), and Tavascán (family-friendly). Also a little further away is the Virós – Vallferrera resort (a new resort concept). If you prefer Nordic or cross-country skiing, the best option is the Tavascán and Virós – Vallferrer resorts (the latter only offers cross-country skiing).




Snowmobile enthusiasts have it easy. Downhills, uphills, slopes, icy trails—with snowmobiles, nothing will stop you and nothing will stand in your way. It's an ideal sport for exploring the surroundings and seeing your surroundings in a simple, fast, and very exciting way.

If, on the other hand, you prefer to immerse yourself fully in the charm of the snow, in the magic that the snow-capped mountains exude, going far beyond adventure, the ideal option is to take one of the magnificent snowshoe excursions available in the area. With good snowshoes on your feet and warmly dressed, you'll be ready to embark on a journey you won't soon forget, where you can enjoy admiring all kinds of landscapes, from frozen lakes to beautiful snow trails.

Another increasingly popular sport is snowboarding, especially among young people. It stands out from the rest because it's only suitable for the most daring and adventurous, as you can glide across the snow on your board and perform impressive jumps in the air that will leave many a person in awe. If you like an adrenaline rush, this is the sport for you. At Pallars Sobirà, you'll enjoy the perfect place to perfect your technique.

In addition to the aforementioned options, we can also mention the ever-popular freestyle, where there are no rules and the style is free (skiing and snowboarding), ski mountaineering (ascending and descending mountains with only the aid of skis), or dog sledding (beautiful routes that will live long in your memory). The winter options at Pallars Sobirà are for all tastes.
