    I am well pleased now. Just hope it keeps on dumping!!!

  • Hiking boots will be fine. I take my snowboard boots for when I am on the slopes, apart from that, just trainers. I used to take shoes/shirts etc but Arinsal is really laid back. If you are skiing you may prefer to leave your ski boots in a locker by the gondola and walk in your hiking boots. I am sure you will have a great time, I am going on the 2nd January & I am made up that the snow has finally started.

    Steve, I am coming out on the 2nd January but the snow is not looking great at the moment. I know historically that it tends to be better towards the end of the season but do you remember when it was last as thin as this in December & what the rest of the season was like? I have everything crossed at the mo for snow!

  • Under six weeks to go! Two more may be coming taking our total to 22 peeps, if the bars were not busy before they will be when we get there! Can't wait.

  • I know I have posted on here already, but can't wait until 6th March to get out to Arinsal. Just found out that the Spurs game has been moved to the Sunday now so hopefully we will be at the Poblado in time for kick off! Just hope it snows a bit more!! Has anyone been already this season? What has the snow been like?

    Hello Steve A group of us are planning on coming back to Arinsal in March (for our fifth visit) & wondered if any hotels were offering deals for the week 14th - 21st March? There will probably be six of us. We are thinking about driving out this time (maybe). If you could let us know would be excellent. I just hope the Pound is a bit stronger this time! Cheers Danny Happy Xmas

    Just back from Arinsal, had a wicked time. Stayed at Poblado & as usual Danny, Kevin & the girls (Gemma, Lynsey & Chloe) were very accomodating. The resort was really quiet but Quo Vadis was normally busy. The rooms were clean, secure & as close to the gondola as you can get, keeping walking to a minimum! Found the food in El Moli to be probably the best around, not one bad dish between us in there. Had good nights in El Cau & Ciscos with the workers finishing up for the season. The slopes were …

    I have found the slopes pretty good in Arinsal before, but if there is not much snow (not like now) it can get pretty icy on the right hand (looking down from the top) side near the chairlift that takes you up to the Pal/Arinsal gondola. Just wear a helmet & wrist guards & ski/board to your level & I'm sure you will have a great time! I always have done in Arinsal.

  • I heard it got shut down due to avalanche warnings, shame as it is a bit of an eyesore in what is otherwise a very pretty place (especially in the snow photo's). Looks like it would have been the business if it was completed!

    Hi Steve, as you are the font of all knowledge, do you know if there are any ski/boarding comps on w/c 22nd March? When we have been before around this time UFO put something on which meant lots of parties! I'm not up to their level on the slopes but the atmosphere was really great as the party was at a different bar each night. Any info would be appreciated. Cheers. Danny

    I agree, you cannot beat the location to the slopes & everything else around the area. Bar staff were really friendly & the rooms were comfortable, clean & safe. Kevin was a top man in Quo Vadis. I would always choose this place as stayed at the Daina appts near St Gothard in 2005 & the walk can be a killer when you carry your equipment up the hill. Can't wait till March

    Won a snowboard in the quiz last year, I won't change it for my one but the quiz only cost 5 euro so I am well happy with that. Good location, straight off the gondola at the end of the day.

    Just dress like a skiier, they look like they are in fancy dress normally! (just joking)
