Exciting Arinsal & Pal is a reputed year-round skiing resort in the mountains of Northern Andorra. Formed by the linking of the villages of Arinsal and Pal, it now stands as the single lift pass of the entire Vall Nord region. It is located conveniently in close proximity to the country's capital, Andorra La Vella, and the area is an offshoot of the state's ambitious transformation project to be a serious world ski destination. Here, professional skiers and winter sports hopefuls dominate much of the skiing area as they practice to hone their game. It is not uncommon for eager fans to approach these world-class athletes and hob-knob with them during after practice dinners.

A haven made for ski enthusiasts and those who aim to learn, Arinsal & Pal is also extremely well-suited for beginners and intermediates. It owns some of the steepest black runs in the country – which are located on the face of the 2,569 meter high mountain Pic Negre, and approximately 28 kilometers worth of ski paths. In addition, it has numerous excellent restaurants and vibrant nightclubs that attract youngsters in search of thrills and excitement.

Arinsal & Pal's relative success as a world-class ski resort, however, is not its main attraction. Its pride lies in the Ski School that it runs. Possessing reasonable tuition fee charges and adequate patient instructors, it attracts a steady stream of students – especially during the peak seasons. Its facilities include a ski kindergarten and a non-skiing cresch (day care center) for the young children.

San Gimignano and San Pellegrino

Night falls on the flourishing and industrious San Gimignano, its 72 towers stand on the low roofs of the houses lit by the moon. This is not a luxury travel spot but is something you don't see every day. In the distance the clatter of hooves echoed tired in the Via Francigena. The hand of the blacksmith stops beating, the frame of the weaver becomes silent, the streets of the tank only a concert ... Read full Blog post
