Set atop the stunning Spanish Pyrenees, La Molina is Spain’s oldest ski resort and a premier destination for school groups seeking an unforgettable skiing experience. Renowned for its high altitude and reliable snow conditions, this sun-soaked resort boasts wide, gentle runs perfect for beginners, alongside more challenging, tree-lined paths in neighbouring Masella for those ready to advance their skills. With an impressive lift system connecting both resorts, there's an option for students to enjoy all 141km of this region's diverse pistes, without the crowds and costs often associated with the Alps. What's more, La Molina traditionally opens early in the season (mid-end November), making it a dependable choice for winter sports.

Features

At La Molina, your students will find an array of skiing experiences tailored to their abilities. La Molina features gentle, wide runs that are ideal for beginners to practice and improve, while a Masella upgrade offers exciting tree-lined runs for more experienced skiers seeking their next adventure.

La Molina has extensive beginner zones and progressive runs that lead from the mountain top back to the resort, meaning you can really get the most from your allotted five hours of ski time each day.
