UPDATED INFO - 02/02/2021

 

 

 

What steps are ski resorts taking to ensure safe skiing experience? 

 

We've been asking ourselves this question for a looooong time and we've been gathering information from all the ski resorts we work with in order to bring you everything you need to know here.

 

Before continuing, we would like to take this moment to recommend you to check official sources to find out what the mobility restrictions are. If you plan to ski abroad, make sure you know if you have to fill out documentation and waht tests you need to take before entering the country or if you have to quarantine at some point during your holiday.

Covid measurement protocol at N'PY resorts (French Pyrenees)

 

 

The French ski resorts corresponding to the N'PY group have also provided us exclusively for Esquiades.com with privileged information about the Covid protocol and we would like to share it with all of you :)

 

Please note that that the N'PY group resorts are: Peyragudes, Piau Engaly, Pic du Midi, Grand Tourmalet, Luz Ardiden, Cauterets, Gourette and La Pierre Saint-Martin . Almost the entire French Pyrenees!

 

They have told us that they will not limit access to the chair lifts, lifts and cable cars , that is, they will not reduce the capacity of their ski lifts. However, and as in most cases, the use of the mask will be mandatory in common areas, lifts, chair lifts, restaurants, bars and rental shops.

 

In addition, in each of the resorts, there will be several disinfection points with hydroalcoholic gels and, of course, the common areas of the resorts will be cleaned and disinfected regularly, as well as rental shops, lockers and access to ski lifts.

 

 

Finally, also inform you that N'PY also manages the SkyLodge Hostel , located at the foot of the slopes of Piau Engaly. Regarding this accommodation, although it has standard double rooms, it also has shared rooms and shared bathrooms, so we have been told that this year this type of rooms can only be used by family units and will not be they can share with other people outside the reservation, at least for now.

You can check more detailed information on the Covid-19 protocols in the Grandvalira Resorts has made official for both the Grandvalira and Ordino-Arcalís ski resorts.
 
 
 
On the other hand, on October 20, Ordino has announced that it will be the first town in Europe to certify the preventive measures applied in the ski resort and in tourist establishments with the Global Safe Site (GSS) quality seal of Bureau Veritas.
 

 

The The Ski and Snowboard School will adapt the technical teaching protocols to guarantee the safety of the customers and the monitors. In addition, monitors will be tested for COVID-19 on a regular basis throughout the season to ensure their safety and that of customers.

As we had already told you, the Grandvalira ski resort has confirmed that this 2020-2021 season there will be no après-ski .

 

 

Covid Protocols in Spanish ski resorts

 

 

The ski resorts grouped into ATUDEM (Tourist Association of Mountain Ski Resorts) and ACEM (Catalan Association of Ski Resorts and Mountain Activities) have come together to create a unified protocol. This same protocol is added to the measures that each resort has decided to take on its own initiative (this includes improvements and investments for the benefit of lovers of mountain sports).

 

"The objective of creating a unified protocol is to ensure that ski resorts can be a safe and healthy place this 2020/2021 ski season"

 

The association has shared with us a health and safety guide in ski resorts and here is a short summary ;)


 

Social Distance Between Skiers

 

Ski resorts will develop operational plans to maintain the greatest possible distance between people, even with the use of a mask.

 

 

Cleaning and disinfection

 

The ski resorts will adopt the cleaning and disinfection measures and routines legally established for each area, in all necessary areas and especially in those with high contact.

 

Ski lifts

 

Social distancing in the waiting areas for the ski lifts occurs naturally due to the length of the skis and snowboards.

 

The employees of the ski resort can ensure a constant and adequate flow of traffic.

 

On lifts with open chairlift-type vehicles, the use of a mask is always mandatory.

 

The lifts will be able to operate at their maximum transport capacity.

 

Standard ski resort safety regulations already require skiers to move quickly away from the ski lift landing area

 

The distance between vehicles and chairs is about 15 meters.


 

Action Plans in Spanish ski resorts

 

Ski resorts will inform all their users, specifically and clearly, about the measures and protocols adopted for the protection against COVID-19, with the available means.

 

The ski resorts will comply with all the measures approved by the competent authorities and will follow the existing protocols if they have to report a positive case of COVID-19 in their resort.

 

The workers of the ski resorts will be trained in COVID-19 safety and disinfection protocols, in accordance with the recommendations of the corresponding competent institutions.



It is confirmed that these ski resorts also accept the use of a filter buff instead of the mask.

 

 

SIERRA NEVADA

 

 

The Sierra Nevada ski resort confirms that the use of a mask is mandatory for people over 6 years of age (depending on the country where the ski resort is located, the age may vary).

In addition, they confirm that the cable car that connects Pradollano with Borreguiles will open at 8:30 am (30 minutes earlier than usual) to avoid crowds and thus speed up access to the slopes area.

Beyond what is recommended by the health authorities, for greater user safety, limitations are established on the number of users per cabin of the two major ski lifts of the station.

 

 

Borreguiles cable car: 6 people per cabin. (on a total capacity of 8 people).

Al-Ándalus cable car: 8 people per cabin. (on a total capacity of 14 people).

 

 

Please note that these limitations may be overcome as long as it is a family unit living in the same address.

The rental shops and restaurants managed by Cetursa Sierra Nevada set a maximum capacity of people and establish with sufficiently visible signage the interior and exterior areas that can be occupied.

 

Apart from following the good practice guide that ATUDEM has prepared, Sierra Nevada confirms that it will only accept a facial covering that complies with the instructions of the Ministry of Health, so that all skiers and snowboarders must wear a mask.

FGC SKI RESORTS

 


For its part, FGC (Ferrocarrils de la Generalitat de Catalunya) has drawn up a joint protocol for the 6 ski resorts that they manage: La Molina, Vall de Núria, Espot Esquí, Port Ainé, Vallter 2000 and Boí Taüll.

 

They indicate that access to the ski lifts, chair lifts or funiculars will not be restricted or limited, but a mask will be mandatory while they are used. In addition, they will also sign and inform through posters, marks and stickers on the protocols for action and disinfection, since the cleaning of the facilities, as well as the rental material, will be intensified after each use.

On the other hand, with regard to restoration, the capacity of the different spaces will be controlled and hygiene and safety measures will be applied.With regard to skiers and snowboarders , the mask will be mandatory at all times and they recommend frequent hand washing and use of hydroalcoholic gels distributed throughout many points of the resorts. 

 

With regard to skiers and snowboarders, the mask will be mandatory at all times and they recommend frequent hand washing and use of hydroalcoholic gels distributed throughout many points of the ski resorts. If you're planning on visiting one of these resorts, you can check the Covid protocol at the FGC resorts .

 

Apart from all these measures and to guarantee their quality, work is being done to certify the processes in the stations with the entity AENOR as well as to obtain the seal of the Institute for Spanish Tourism Quality (ICTE), "Safe Tourism Certified ".

 

 

 

BAQUEIRA-BERET

 

The Baqueira Beret ski resort has also made public the protocol that they will follow to deal with Covid-19 and open it as a " Safe Destination ", as they themselves promulgate.

 

The Valle de Arán resort places special emphasis on the fact that winter sports are outdoors, in nature and in large spaces, so they are already safe activities.

 

However, and as is logical, they have also imposed a general regulation that will apply to the entire ski resort and which consists of the following points:

 

 Mandatory use of the mask at all times.

 

 Maintain a safe distance.

 

 There will be several hydroalcoholic gel points.

 

 The resort will perform constant cleaning and disinfection tasks.

 

❄ Capacity in closed spaces will be limited.

 

 

 

On the other hand, in the event that you have to go to the Viajes Baqueira offices for any reason, they have also taken certain measures that you must respect.

 

❄ Capacity will be limited and an entry and exit route will be marked. In addition, the counters will have protective screens and hydroalcoholic gels.

 

 In the event that queues form, the safety distance between customers will be maintained and also, for those who have to wait outside, there will be screens outside that will regulate access to the interior.

 

 

 

Please note that this year you will not have to go to the Baqueira Travel Offices to collect your passes, since if you book with Esquiades.com you will havethe ski passes directly at the reception of your accommodation .

 

Video taken in the Baqueira Beret ski resort where you can see all the anti-covid measures.

 

 

Regarding the organization of the ski lifts , from Baqueira Beret they indicate that they will not limit their access since:

 

 Most ski lifts and lifts are outdoors, so skiers and snowboarders will have a clean and fresh airflow, hence they do not limit occupancy.

 

 In addition, the length of the skis and snowboards themselves facilitate a certain distance between people, but even so the waiting space will be dimensioned and queues will be organized so that the safety distance is maintained.

 

 

For the use of the ski lifts , Baqueira has established the following points:

 

 The use of the mask in queues and during the journey of the ski lifts will be mandatory.

 

 Skiers and snowboarders, once they reach the landing area of the chairlift or ski lift, will have to leave said area quickly to avoid crowds.

 

❄ In addition, the daily cleaning of lift vehicles will be reinforced with disinfection and hygiene products.

 

 

 

Another point to take into account and that is of special importance for users is restoration . The resort has confirmed that it will open its establishments with exceptional measures that we tell you below:

 

 In bars and restaurants, QR codes will be used on tables to read letters on mobile phones.

 

 An online ordering and payment service will also be implemented, thus avoiding the need to queue. It will be served directly at the table.

 

 In this way, the self-service service will be suppressed and all orders and payments will be made from the table with the QR code.

 

 The gastronomic offer will be reduced to optimize waiting time and capacity.

 

 There will be strict capacity controls in the premises and the capacity of the cafeterias will correspond to the number of places available to sit.

 

 And, as always, there will be more revised and reinforced cleaning plans using specific chemicals for Covid-19.

 

 

As for the resort rental shops , capacity will be limited, there will be social distancing and the equipment will be disinfected after each use, as well as disinfection of the ski storage and repairs of private equipment s.


Finally, Baqueira Beret has announced that as a preventive measure and following current regulations, during the 2020/2021 season no sports events and competitions will be held at the resort.

 

Respect and Ski Safe

 

We would like to take this moment to remind everyone that ensuring that Covid-19 does not spread is everyone's responsibility . If we all respect the measures and protocols of the ski resorts, we can all enjoy our favorite sport this winter season.
