Soldeu - El Tarter is in Grandvalira - Canillo (Andorra) and you get there by car: from Barcelona-El Prat (BCN), 2h 45min by car away. The access road changes with the snowfall — chains, ice, queues — so it is worth checking the day's report and cameras at https://www.caranva.app/en/nieve/andorra/soldeu-el-tarter before setting off.
December 4, 2026 has been published as Soldeu - El Tarter's opening day for the 2026/27 season, but it is a planned date, not a confirmed one: it comes from grandvalira.com and depends on snow conditions. Once the resort settles it, the final date will be at https://www.caranva.app/en/esqui/fechas-apertura/soldeu-el-tarter.
Soldeu - El Tarter's planned closing for the 2026/27 season is April 4, 2027, according to grandvalira.com, and it depends on the snow: it is not a settled date. Up top (2560 m) the season often runs longer; the current date is at https://www.caranva.app/en/esqui/fechas-apertura/soldeu-el-tarter.
It changes daily and the resort itself publishes it every morning: snow depth by altitude, open runs and open lifts. The Soldeu - El Tarter daily report and forecast are at https://www.caranva.app/en/nieve/andorra/soldeu-el-tarter, and the live cameras at https://www.caranva.app/en/webcams/esqui/soldeu-el-tarter. When it blows hard, the most exposed lifts are usually the upper ones (2560 m), so it is worth checking before driving up.
Between 1710 and 2560 metres, a vertical drop of 850 m. That difference is why the snow is not the same across the whole resort on the same day: the upper slopes hold up better late in the season, while the lower part, at 1710 m, is the first to feel rain or warm weather. That is why the Soldeu - El Tarter report is read by altitude band, at https://www.caranva.app/en/nieve/andorra/soldeu-el-tarter.
Soldeu - El Tarter has 80 km of pistes and 27 lifts, between 1710 and 2560 m of altitude.

Which pass types exist and who each one suits is explained at https://www.caranva.app/en/forfait-esqui/soldeu-el-tarter.

In the same valley or the next one: Grandvalira (210 km of pistes, up to 2640 m) and Pas de la Casa - Grau Roig (60 km of pistes, up to 2640 m). Comparing their top altitudes helps when snowfall is scarce: the ones that top out higher tend to open earlier and hold on longer at the end of the season.
