Lifts & Runs still closed?

Ellis Birt · Feb 6th 2012, 1:54pm

Hi,

I'm coming to Arinsal in mid march and have been watching the weather and snow reports for some time.

You weather report says:
Lifts open 12 of 13 (Vallnord 35 of 45)
Slopes open 18 of 19 (Vallnord 47 of 69)

But I cannot find any mention of which lifts/slopes are closed. Are the last lift & slope going to open at all this year?

TIA

Hi Ellis

In Arinsal the last run/lift to open is always La Capa - and it only opens a few times in the season. Most of the closed slopes are in Arcalis but this is because of too much snow at the moment and no time to prepare the pistes - this should change in the next few days to having just about everything open... so watch this space!

Thought I might as well hijack this thread... It sort of asks my question anyway...

Steve, in your experience does it look like there's any chance of la capa being open on 2-5 March? We're popping over for a last minute weekend trip and what may well be our last trip to arinsal so it'd be good to have a few more runs down from the top!

Cheers,
Ryan

Hey Ryan

In answer to your question... absolutely no idea!

It depends on snowfall in between now and then, and depends on the weather conditions whilst you're out - sorry!
