Gastronomic experiences in the snow
A good example of this spectacular combination of snow and gastronomy is the GastroMarmotes by night experience in Vallter. This exclusive activity allows you to enjoy a mountain dinner in an unbeatable setting, with a ride in a snow groomer up to the Marmotes mountain shelter, located at an altitude of 2,535 metres. Once there, allow yourself to be seduced by a selection of traditional cuisine with a touch of sophistication, combining top-quality local produce and wines from the DO Empordà, all set against the stunning backdrop of moonlit mountains and stars. A magical experience to share with friends or as a couple, and perfect for making your getaway to the snow even more special.
At La Molina resort, as well as enjoying a full day of skiing and fun with the family in one of the most emblematic resorts in the Girona Pyrenees, you’ll also be able to have dinner in the snow. At an altitude of 2,000 metres, the resort has a terrace with breathtaking views. With prior reservation, you can also enjoy exquisite mountain dinners, which includes night-time skiing. And to round off the experience, there is nowhere better than a night at the Hotel Solineu.

Relax after a day of skiing
After a day of adventure and excitement in the snow, there is always time to unwind.

As well as enjoying a day of skiing in a resort with spectacular views and ski runs for all levels, when your legs are exhausted or when you’ve done enough sledging down the mountain, in resorts like Vallter you can also take advantage of the unforgettable sunsets. A unique experience that includes a ride in a snow groomer, allowing you to watch the sunset at high altitude.
