Adventure activities in the snow with children
We invite you to start the day with one of our star activities at our snow activity center in Grau-Roig (Grandvalira), Andorra:
The construction of an authentic igloo so that you can get inside and take photos like a real Eskimo. Our monitors will explain how you should carry out the activity and will advise you in some moments but the activity is totally autonomous and ideal to do with the little ones in the family.
Then you can have fun with a mushing or dogsled outing. Get on the sled and let yourself be carried away by the friendliest dogs in Grandvalira. You can choose from a route of 2km to 10km. To give you an idea, 2km on a sunny day the time on the sled can be 8 minutes, while on a cold and snowy day, the dogs run like the wind and the route can be shortened up to 5 minutes. Each sled can fit from two adults to one adult and two children if one of them is small.
Next, we invite you to try the snowmobiles: the most adrenaline activity in the center. Drive a snowmobile in the Moretó forest in the heart of the Andorran Pyrenees. An adrenaline experience that you cannot miss.
Choose between 30 minutes, an hour, or two hours. The motorcycles are double and we also provide taxi services to take customers to the Piolet or Vodka Bar restaurants in Grau-Roig.
Finally, you can also choose the snowshoe excursion. A guided excursion of two or five hours to the Pessons lake and back. A magical experience among the snowy mountains of Grandvalira.
These last three activities can also be done at night or even with a full moon. The experience that you must do at least once in your life to enjoy the mountain in its most beautiful state. In Andorra there is no night lockdown, therefore, you can carry out all these activities without worrying about the time.
