Cleaning day with MADTEAM
Help us take care of the mountain!
The Vallter station, inaugurated in 1975, is located in the middle of peaks that exceed 2,800m in altitude.
With the base located at 2,000m, it allows you to combine alpine skiing on the central slopes with the ascent with mountain skis through the area of the Xalet.
Vallter is located in the glacial circus of Morens-Ull de Ter. It extends to the north of the Ripollès region, within the municipality of Setcases, in the easternmost part of the Girona Pyrenees. It is a cozy and family resort, opened in the 1974-75 season as a center for skiing and mountain activities. The base of the station is located at an altitude of 2,200 meters above the valley of the river Ter, with a minimum elevation of 1,959 meters and a maximum elevation of 2,535 meters. Its privileged geographical location allows you to see from the highest elevation and on days of good visibility a unique and exceptional view of the Gulf of Roses.
The "Mirador-Balcó de la Costa Brava" is installed on the terrace of the Les Marmotes cafeteria, where you can see the indicated points of the panorama. The peaks that surround Vallter are among others, the peak of Bastiments (2,881 m), the Gra de Fajol (2,708 m) and the peak of La Dona (2,704 m).
Much more than a station, a whole mountain center
The resort is committed to a ski and mountain offer that combines ascent with descent, the "Up & Down" concept. This combination makes it an ideal place for outdoor sports and mountain activities: alpine skiing and snowboarding, downhill skiing, snowshoeing, freeride, snowfields and igloo construction, snowmaking workshops, downhill with sled and tubbys, and toy library-Snow garden for children
A family resort
Its location makes it the ideal destination for the whole family to enjoy the mountains at any time of the year. The skier who comes to look for challenges like the one who comes for a quiet day of snowshoeing or the families who come to play in the snow, everyone finds their place in Vallter. Also, the proximity to Girona and Barcelona (about two hours by car) and the wide variety of activities and services allow you to enjoy an excellent experience in Vallter. The best getaway!* Dogs are free and must be tied up and carry a muzzle (in case they do not have a muzzle, there is the possibility of buying them at the box office for 5 €).

FGC's tourist facilities will offer nearly 100 km of hiking and trail running routes, 56 sports and nature activities, 13 downhill circuits, 23 children's activities, 12 catering points and rides on 7 ski lifts. The proposal is designed for all audiences and with a diversified offer to offer an active and accessible destination 365 days a year.
This 2025 summer season arrives loaded with proposals for all people.
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 Real Federación Española Deportes de Invierno recognizes the trajectory of a family-friendly and innovative resort, key in the history of skiing in the Pyrenees. Vallter's director, Enric Serra Teixidor, highlights the resort's role in promoting basic and competitive skiing over five decades.
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 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.
Ferrocarrils will present the wide range of activities offered by the mountain resorts, tourist trains and the Parc Astronòmic del Montsec. During the show, from 28 to 30 March at the Montjuïc exhibition centre, FGC will present the latest tourist transport season news.
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.
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.
