  • El Tarter. This is aimed at more daring sportspeople, who love extreme activities. El Tarter Snowpark offers a variety of challenges on the snow and has some very demanding lines of modules. You can leave the children at the Bababoom Circus, a fantastic facility for kids, while you test yourself against the Snowpark’s challenges. At night, the atmosphere and live music of Abarset awaits.
