In 2003, Andorra's ski resort, Grandvalira, achieved a milestone by becoming the largest resort in the Pyrenees. This accomplishment was the result of the merging of two renowned resorts, Pas de la Casa/Grau Roig and Soldeu/El Tarter. Grandvalira now offered an extensive ski area with over 200 kilometers of slopes for visitors to enjoy.
The consolidation of the two resorts into Grandvalira had a significant impact on the region's tourism industry. It attracted more skiers and snowboarders from around the world, boosting Andorra's reputation as a premier winter sports destination in Europe. The larger ski area also provided more opportunities for winter sports enthusiasts of all levels to experience the thrill of skiing in the stunning Pyrenees mountains.
With this merger, Andorra solidified its position as a key player in the ski industry and continued to draw in tourists seeking world-class skiing facilities in a picturesque setting. The growth of Grandvalira brought economic benefits to the country, generating revenue from tourism and creating job opportunities within the hospitality and tourism sectors.
