Spring Snow Blankets Andorra’s Slopes

Heavy spring snow has hit Andorra, delivering ideal conditions for late-season skiing.

On Monday evening, El Tarter was hit with heavy snow, with thick flakes falling steadily across the resort.

Snow depths in the Grandvalira Ski Area now exceed 210 cm (83 in) on the upper slopes, above multidecadal norms. As a result, most lifts and runs have remained open, though the avalanche risk is a 3 out of 5 with visitors urged to stay on marked trails.

Temperatures are hovering between -2C (28F) and 4C (39F), with additional snow in the forecast.
