Ordino-Arcalís is Andorra's smallest and highest-based ski area, in the parish of Ordino, with about 30 km of piste between 1,940 m and 2,625 m served by 15 lifts. It was historically joined with Pal-Arinsal under the "Vallnord" brand but has been separately operated since around 2018–2019, remaining a physically separate, non-lift-connected ski area.
It markets itself around Andorra's best freeride terrain. Its panoramic Tristaina lift is marketed as a "cable car" but is actually a continuously-circulating gondola, not a true reversible tramway — Ordino-Arcalís has no genuine cable car.

No true reversible cable car exists at Ordino-Arcalís — the Tristaina lift is marketed with "cable car" language but is a continuously-circulating gondola.
