Soldeu and El Tarter are very close villages with an energetic, friendly and active community. This place is extremely popular with British Ski lovers.

You are transported to the different slopes using modernized gondolas going back and forth from the villages of Soldeu and El Tarter. There are great areas suitable for novices and advanced skiers. The wooded runs from the areas of El Tarter to Soldeu are perfect for travelers due to the complexity and the long runs covering Llosada.
