Grandvalira has launched a new Freestyle Season Ski Pass that will allow specific access to freestyle areas but not to the resort of Andorra's largest ski resort's huge domain.  Users purchasing the pass, or the full Grandvalira pass, before the date for the kick-off season at Grandvalira on Nov. 29, will benefit from a discounted price.

Freeskiers and snowboarders can use the freestyle areas (Snowpark El Tarter, Isards Park and Snowpark Xavi) throughout the season for 370 Euros, or 295 Euros if the pass is purchased within the promotional period ending  Nov. 28.

The full Grandvalira pass covers all parks and, until May 3, almost 200km (125 miles) of terrain at the largest skiable area in the Pyrenees and its seven access points for 550 Euros. The kids' pass is 405 Euros when purchased by Nov.  28.

Once the winter season starts, adult and children passes will be on sale for 770 Euros and 620 Euros respectively. The price for the Senior Season Pass (65 -70) will be 290 Euros.

"With this offer, Grandvalira guarantees the best experience at the best price in the peninsula with 200 km of skiable terrain, quality services and facilities, and snowmaking capacity covering 43 percent of the terrain," said a resort spokesperson.

The passes can be purchased online.
