Soldeu / Soldeu Village area
The après-ski on offer in the Soldeu sector has two main attractions: the “Sport Wellness Mountain Spa” and the afternoon and nightlife in Soldeu’s pubs and clubs.
For those who prefer shopping, Soldeu also has various sports shops such as Pic Negre and Esports Calbó, where you can find all sorts of ski and snowboard equipment for all budgets.
As we mentioned, thermal water therapy has reached Soldeu with the “Sport Wellness Mountain Spa”.
Built recently, it has a capacity of 4500 m2 of water, making it the second largest of its kind in Andorra and one of the most distinguished mountain, thermal leisure and health centres in Europe.
The reception area alone, with its open structure looking down on the four lower levels, gives you an idea of the magnitude of the building. This spectacular centre has various aquatic areas with indoor Jacuzzis, Turkish baths, hammam, fitness room, UVA, a large pool, outdoor Jacuzzi and a hairdresser, among other facilities. Here, you can also receive health and beauty treatment in individual units. All of this with views over the pistes of the Soldeu sector of Grandvalira. This is a great place to rest and relax after a heavy day on the snow or walking , it has the advantage of being on the resort’s doorstep. Carretera General s/n. Soldeu. Phone: +(376) 870 500.
Soldeu is also famous for its nightlife, during the winter season becoming a playground for Grandvalira’s party animals! Here you can join in the fun, cosmopolitan atmosphere, where skiing and snowboarding are a way of life. Although known for its mainly British and Irish clientele, you’ll also find resort workers and other holidaymakers who don’t want to miss out on one of the best nights out in Andorra. Well known pubs and clubs are The Villager, The Aspen, Fat Albert’s, The Pussycat, Avalanche, Iceberg, Slalom…
For those looking for a quieter and more cultured time then Soldeu and surrounding areas have some fine restaurants, and lovely hotels offering excellent cuisine and entertainment.
During summer, as well as The Mountain Spa, there are also the beautiful mountains of the Vall d’Incles, with its natural surroundings, which is highly recommended for hiking enthusiasts. Mountain bikers, riders will also find plenty to do at Basecamp Grandvalira; the summer outdoor centre up on the mountain at mid-station.
