The Val d’ Aran ski resort, Baqueira Beret, will open 25 ski slopes next Saturday with more than 30 km of open slopes and a maximum snow thickness of up to 50 cm. The heavy snowfall and intense cold of the last few weeks has led to an abundant production of snow and the ideal conditions to bring forward the opening, initially planned for the last weekend in November.
The central area of Baqueira will be open with all lifts in operation except for the Telecabina and the TDS Pla de Baqueira. The station will keep its opening during the week and, if weather permitting, until 8 April, the scheduled closing day.
The skiers who come up this weekend will be able to open the new Restaurant del Bosque in Baqueira 1800. Orri’s Parrrec, Orri’s ticket offices and Baqueira 1500’s offices will also be open from 8:00 am to 7:00 pm.
The Ski Service, located in Baqueira 1.500 and at elevation 1.800, will also be active and it will be possible to hire the services of ski-guards and boots for the whole season in Ruda, Baqueira 1500 and Baqueira 1800.
