Pal
Pal is the larger of the two sectors with long runs ripping through beautiful fir trees and allowing you to cruise around all day on a variety of runs.
With a designated beginners area with a magic carpet and a variety of chair lifts spanning across the sector, Pal offers an amazing location to begin your skiing journey.
Arinsal
Arinsal is the slightly smaller wilder brother to the Pal resort being smaller in size, but offering more black runs, with the added bonus of a ski park.
Arinsal also offers an amazing beginners area for those first time skiers, with a beautiful view from the base of the mountain upwards towards the slopes.
Ski Schools
Both the Arinsal and Pal sector have amazing ski schools, who regularly take their classes across the Gondola to explore the opposing sector. These are done by utilising the Arinsal-Pal Cable Car/Gondola which runs throughout the day.
