The reason is very simple, the parking lot of the Port Ainé ski resort is in the middle of the ski resort and you can park the car without taking the chairlift, go to the terrace of the Port Ainé hotel, have a drink while the children play the snow, all without paying a ski pass.
If you dare, right in front of the terrace there is the leisure park that for €15 the child can enter and do many activities as you will see in this publication.
ℹ? In this publication we are going to provide you with all the information SO YOU CAN ORGANIZE YOURSELF QUICKLY AND MAKE THE BEST DECISION.
It may be that on the 2 ski and estiber websites you cannot buy the ski pass for just 1 day, so you have to go to the Port Aine online store Here
Among the attractions of the Hotel Brases, is its proximity to the Port Ainé Ski Resort. Station that stands out for its small size and family atmosphere, people go to Port Aine for its recreational park for children, to learn to ski, the avant-garde and pioneer snowpark, snowshoes and mountain skiing and wonderful views in general and especially from the pic del orri on the green track of Bella Vista
It has an unbeatable location, since its 30 km of slopes (more than 90%) are oriented to the north, which makes it ideal for skiing. It is equipped with its own ski lift.
The Port Ainé ski resort is located in the heart of the Lleida Pyrenees.
A place that can be described as idyllic and that is also ideal for those who like to ski on high-quality slopes but fleeing from the overcrowding of skiers that occurs in other parts of the Pyrenees.
Its location, under the Pic de l'Orri, at an altitude of 2,440 metres, and with 95% of its slopes facing the north face, allows you to enjoy excellent snow throughout the ski season, from December to Easter, being the ideal place to spend a few days.
And it is that very close to Port Ainé you can also ski in the nearby ski resort of Espot.
The two stations together form the domain of Ski Pallars.
In addition, Port Ainé is a destination for the family public with 5 ski schools and more than a hundred specialized instructors. Thus, the Port Ainé resort has a total of six green slopes, which are ideal for when you start skiing, and four blue ones for those who already have a little more level.
And for the more experienced skiers, the ski resort also has 11 red slopes and four black ones.
In total there are 25 slopes with almost 25 skiable kilometers. These facilities are completed with a toboggan run, a snowshoe run and one of the snowparks with the longest history among Catalan ski resorts.
It has slopes for those who are just starting out in this sport of skiing, and it has areas for the most expert? and those who seek improvement in this sport. Something very important to highlight is its family atmosphere and its fun activities in the snow for the little ones. Do you dare to spend a day in the mountains?
