High-altitude experiences

By the beginning of the twentieth century people were already skiing in La Molina, but the arrival of the railway in 1922 really accelerated the arrival of skiers at this modest Pyrenean resort in the town of Alp in La Cerdanya. The first T-bar lift in Spain was installed here in 1943, and shortly afterwards in 1946 La Molina was again a pioneer of lift installation with the commissioning of the Turó de la Perdiu chairlift. Today, in addition to its 68 trails and 71 kilometres of ski area, La Molina offers two high-altitude experiences that combine sport and gastronomy. The first is dinner at the Niu de l’Àliga lodge with an elevation 2,520, featuring access by cable car, sunset views, a special mountain dinner and a moonlight descent on skis. The second option is to have a drink and dinner at the chilled-out Costa Rasa, at an altitude of 2,000 metres. The end of the festive season also includes a night skiing down the Volta Muntanya Sagrada track.
