Espot is characterized by its tracks in the middle of lush black pine forests. It has more than 23 km of skiing and 1,000 m of elevation gain, and enjoys a unique privileged location in the Pyrenees, being the onlyresort located next to a National Park, that of Aigüestortes and Sant Maurici Lake.
On the other hand, Espot became, in 2013, the first ski and mountain resort in the Catalan Pyrenees to obtain the seal of tourist quality "Family Tourism Destination" awarded by the Catalan Tourism Agency, for which they recognize the main tourist attractions aimed at the family audience that the resort has.
News & Events
The mountain resorts managed by FGC TURISME welcome the 2025 summer season with progressive openings and a wide variety of activities to enjoy nature and adventure.
From now until October, La Molina, Vall de Núria, Vallter, Espot Esquí, Port Ainé and Boí Taüll will carry out litter collection actions to raise awareness among citizens about the importance of keeping the mountain clean.
The event, which has been held in Innsbruck every two years since 1974, is the world's leading event in cable transport technologies, snow management and alpine infrastructure.
The company's president, Carles Ruiz Novella, received the award from the head of the police region, Chief Superintendent Daniel Pérez. The Generalitat Police also publicly congratulated two skiers from Boí Taüll who collaborated in a mountain rescue in the 2023-24 season.
The snowfall and the constant work of the technical teams on the slopes have allowed the ski areas to be open for up to 134 days, from December to April. Complementary activities, such as the offer of amusement parks and sledges, outings with retrac machines and rides with ski lifts, together with the enhancement of the gastronomic offer have allowed to recover the influx of previous years. The resorts are already working, within the Pirineu 365 project, in the summer season to promote activity in nature and the high mountains all year round.
The snowfall recorded during the month of March and the work of the track preparation teams at the Ferrocarrils tourist facilities allow us to ensure an Easter with the resorts open until April 21. Among the proposals are the Easter Egg Gymkhana in La Molina and Vall de Núria, the musical Vermut in Vallter and the parties to bid farewell to the season in Espot Esquí, Port Ainé and Boí Taüll.
The maximum accumulated thicknesses thanks to the latest snowfalls range between 120 and more than 300 cm of snow at high altitudes, depending on the resort. The six FGC tourist resorts will have recreational and sports activities for all audiences, such as children's workshops, DJ sessions, gastronomic offerings and social races.
From March 31, the Espot Esquí ski and mountain resort will adapt its schedules and offer special rates to enjoy the snow during spring.
The six ski and mountain resorts managed by Ferrocarrils de la Generalitat de Catalunya plan to open their ski areas until Easter. With 28 days of the season ahead, winter sports enthusiasts will be able to enjoy unbeatable conditions thanks to the abundant snowfall recorded in recent weeks.
This open competition, the last sporting event of the season at the resort, takes place this Sunday, March 23. Pallars Alpine Snowboard is a project that was born from the desire to encourage snowboarding in Pallars.
The six Ferrocarrils resorts, together, plan to open almost all of the ski areas this weekend. The good condition of the slopes, the constant work of the station staff and the forecast of more snowfall predict a good end to the season with the ski areas in optimal operation until Easter.
Located at the base of the station, at an altitude of 1,500 m, it is a space where people with disabilities, chronic illnesses or reduced mobility have specific hygiene equipment and a comfortable area for companions. The environment is also adapted for the overall improvement of accessibility to the area and landscape integration. Espot is the fifth station managed by Ferrocarrils de la Generalitat de Catalunya to have this equipment.
The staff will carry a device that can be activated in the event of an incident, which will allow the person to be located and monitored in real time and instantly. When the device is activated, it sends an alert to the telephone number that is associated, either the control center or the staff on duty. With this new tool, Ferrocarrils reaffirms its commitment to the safety of its workers by betting on new technologies.
Make-up workshops, costume contests, hot chocolates, live music and many more activities will fill La Molina, Vall de Núria, Vallter, Espot, Port Ainé and Boí Taüll with debauchery.
The objective of this initiative is to promote and popularize winter sports among 3rd and 4th grade primary school students in the Catalan Pyrenees, as well as offer the opportunity to learn and experience them in their own environment.
