Pas de la Casa is a high-altitude ski village with limited space during busy periods. In winter, use a covered car park or your hotel's parking; in summer, the blue zone costs at most €10.40/day and is free at midday, overnight and on Sundays/holidays. Bring cash: only three meters in the village accept cards.

Compare other resort access points if Pas de la Casa is full.
El Tarter village and resort
El Tarter offers another Grandvalira access point.

The village has regulated street spaces as well as covered car parks. Follow the signs for payment hours and tariffs, and check height restrictions if you are driving a larger vehicle.

Covered parking is convenient in winter, but demand can be high. If your hotel does not provide a reserved space, identify a public alternative before arrival.

  • Check whether the space is paid by the hour, day or overnight.
  • Keep the parking ticket or payment confirmation until you leave.
  • Check for any ski-pass parking offer directly with the resort.

Paid parking, covered car parks and ski access

Many visitors can walk from the village car parks to the lifts, so once you have parked you may not need the car again that day. Arrive early on weekends and during school holidays.

Winter equipment requirements depend on road conditions. Carry suitable chains and know how to fit them before setting off.

Pas de la Casa blue zone and quick shopping visits

The blue zone is useful outside the ski peak, when it is easier to find a space. The source guide gives a reference maximum of €10.40 per day and notes free periods from 1 pm to 3 pm and from 8 pm to 9 am. Only a small number of meters accept cards, so carry cash.

For a shopping stop, the Centro Comercial Pyrénées offers two hours free with a My Pyri virtual card and a minimum purchase of €24. Check the current offer and validation rules before relying on it.

Covered car parks: Parking Comunal and Vertical del Maià

Both covered car parks are operated by Parkia and have the same listed tariffs. Parking Comunal is the first one you reach when coming from the tunnel or France; it has wide spaces and also accepts motorhomes. Vertical del Maià is before the village if you arrive from the Port d'Envalira; take care when exiting with a large vehicle because the exit space is narrow.

Parkia's 2025/26 tariff schedule lists €2.25 for one hour, €24.40 for one day, €55.15 for a three-day pass and €105.10 for a seven-day pass. The multi-day passes reduce the average cost to about €18/day for three days and €15/day for seven days. You can book online before driving up.

Open-air car parks: Bullidor, Plaça Coprínceps and Les Abelletes

Aparcament Bullidor is an open-air car park with spaces for ordinary vehicles and the village's only grey/black-water disposal and water-fill facilities for motorhomes. In winter, the water supply may be shut off because of frost. Plaça Coprínceps is a central option for the village; Grandvalira Parking Les Abelletes is beside the chairlift and convenient if you are staying in Pas, but it is paid.

Grau Roig is a very large free car park about 10 minutes down the CG-2. It has no barrier and is not supervised, so vehicles are left at the owner's risk. Because Grau Roig is also a Grandvalira sector, you can ski across the domain and return to the car by ski; if staying in Pas, you can leave the car at Grau Roig and ski back to the village, then collect it the next morning by lift.

Grandvalira also lists the Flor de Neu area as a temporary motorhome overnight area while permanent areas are being planned. Check the official resort page for current rules. A free Parking de la FIS is mentioned in ski forums, but the source guide has not independently confirmed it.

Only coming to shop? Consider staying in the centre

The Spanish source guide includes a practical recommendation for shopping-only visits: driving up to Pas means paying for parking (often €15–€20/day), using extra fuel on the climb to 2,000 metres and dealing with mountain traffic, while shops may not open until 9 or 10 am.

For a shopping trip, consider Andorra la Vella or Escaldes-Engordany instead, where the Meritxell and Carlemany avenues form the main shopping mile. A hotel with free parking, a pool or a spa can cost less overall than a Pas parking fee plus the drive. Pas makes more sense for skiing or as a route stop when travelling from France.

Motorhomes and caravans

The source guide identifies Aparcament Bullidor as the only local option with a wastewater disposal point. Overnight stays are restricted to official campsites; do not treat a public car park as an overnight campsite.

In 2026, Grandvalira temporarily designated the Flor de Neu area for caravan overnight parking while permanent areas were being planned. Check the resort's latest information because temporary arrangements can change.

  • Use official campsites for overnight stays.
  • Confirm waste-water facilities and vehicle rules at Bullidor.
  • Check current Grandvalira notices for temporary caravan areas.

Getting to Pas de la Casa: Envalira Pass or tunnel

From central Andorra, choose between the free Port d'Envalira and the Envalira Tunnel. The pass is a scenic drive and takes about 10 minutes longer, but has bends and can be snowy, icy or closed in winter. The tunnel is the faster option at €8.10 each way in 2026.

If the pass is closed, the tunnel automatically becomes free while the closure lasts. A purchase over €99 at E.Leclerc in Andorra la Vella may include a tunnel ticket; check the current promotion and keep the receipt. Always check road and weather conditions before setting off.

  • Port d'Envalira: free; scenic; about 10 minutes longer than the tunnel.
  • Envalira Tunnel: €8.10 each way; free while the pass is closed.
  • E.Leclerc: the source guide notes a tunnel-ticket offer with purchases over €99; confirm current terms.
