As in any other ski resort that you find in Spain, the snow is the main attraction of these mountains. However, the facilities that you find and the fun that this may cause you, is what sets the decisive point when it comes to recommending a ski resort or not.

En Candanchú we have different snow tracks that, like all of them, are classified according to density or hazard ratio. It is important whenever you ask the monitors and specialists in this regard especially if you are a person who is starting or who has not played in the snow for a long time.

In the section of the lifts we can enjoy different chairlift rides and see from the top, all the snow and mountains.

A chairlift ride is usually very nice and exciting but you should always keep in mind that you will be on the heights and, in case you have vertigo, it is much better that you do not opt ​​for this installation.
