Valgrande-Pajares Ski Resort

Activity · Lena, Caudal, Asturias

The Estación Invernal y de Montaña Valgrande-Pajares is a ski resort in the Cantabrian mountain range, in the Asturian concejo of Lena, located at the top of the Pajares pass, on the boundary between Asturias and León. It opened on 17 January 1954 and offers alpine skiing, cross-country skiing and snowboarding across the slopes of Celleros, Cuetu Riondu and Cuitunigru. It has two lodges, including the one belonging to the University of Oviedo, and seven lifts: a cable car, two four-seat chairlifts, two ski tows and two moving carpets, giving access to 38 marked runs and a 7-kilometre cross-country circuit. In the 2022-2023 season the cable car was installed, the only one in the entire Cantabrian mountain range, giving access to the high ground of Cuitunigru.
