Having worked at Rayburn Tours for a number of years I’ve been lucky enough to visit a whole host of ski resorts. This February Half Term I packed up my skis and travelled to Vallnord, Andorra, for a great week of skiing.
Here are my top six reasons why Vallnord was the perfect resort for a school ski trip this February Half Term…
1. Conditions
Snow conditions were excellent, with plenty of snow across the whole mountain
2. Weather
We had excellent weather, 5 days of sunshine combined with 1 day of snow meant we were able to ski and top up our tans!
3. Beginner Progression
Vallnord gives excellent progression to beginners, with a big nursery slope serviced by a ‘Magic Carpet lift’ and a 2 man chair lift
4. Skiing abilities
The intermediate and advances skiers aren’t forgotten with plenty of Red and Black runs
5. Lift Queues
We waited no longer than 5 minutes in the lift queues – for peak February Half Term, that’s excellent
6. Off-Piste
The group were entertained with some fun off-piste sections that meant we didn’t need to travel over to Arinsal
