Panticosa's recent development has
not only increased the number of pistes on the slopes but also reformed
all aspects of services and facilities.
Ski Train:
The FREE non-stop ski train
service circuits the village daily providing transportation to the
Gondola.
Crêche & Snow Garden:
The snow-garden facility is
located at the top of the Gondola within easy access from the restaurant
and nursery slopes.
Equipment Hire:
Angel Sport retains a firm
presence in Panticosa for over 30 years. Accustomed to English speaking
clientel, their three shops in Panticosa offer a full range of quality
equipment according to your levels of skiing and snowboarding.
Sierra Essence can pre-book your
equipment at discounted rates and help save time on arrival.
Shopping:
As a year round destination,
Panticosa has a number of quality clothing and mountaineering shops. If
you have a car, visit the border with France, just 13 kms away, for the
next best thing to Duty Free shopping. The neighbouring villages have
plenty of shops selling local art and craft products.
Internet:
From what we have seen, this
appears to be readily available with most hotels offering this as a free
service thereby avoiding the need to search for cyber cafe's
Ski School:
The Panticosa Ski School has a
professional reputation for quality tuition with plenty of instructors
available. English speaking instructors can vary. Sierra Essence &
the British Ski Center have contacts to be able to request the best
English speaking instructors for private tuition.
Hotels:
With the ongoing dynamic changes
to the resort, hoteliers have also been sharpening up their image by
offering higher quality services at little additional cost and increasing
their facilities and activities to cater especially for families and
couples.
