The Palau de Gel has launched Splash, a new water slide activity that is going to be all the rage this summer. Just a five-minute drive from the hotel, it promises to be the perfect refuge from the heat on summer afternoons. Located in the swimming pool of the Canillo resort, it guarantees fun and laughter for the whole family after a day in the mountains. It will undoubtedly be one of the attractions of the year.
Splash: Andorra’s new water attraction
Launched at the beginning of this year 2024, Splash has 3 large water slides inside the centre’s pool with a 53-metre ride at a height of 7 metres. The activity lasts one hour and to enter you must be at least 1.20 metres tall and children under 10 years of age must be accompanied by an adult. All participants must bring a swimming costume, towel, cap and bathing shoes. Don’t forget to book in advance, as places are limited, but this way you can make sure you go at the time that suits you best. Tickets are sold directly on their website as individual or family packages.
Children between 3 and 12 years old can have fun on the slides in the small pool.
Olympic ice rink at Palau de Gel
Located right in the centre of Canillo, the sports complex also houses the only ice rink in Andorra. It has Olympic-sized ice rinks and has had its facilities renovated this winter. From its stands it is common to see skating and ice hockey competitions. But it is also open to the public, where you can ice skate with the whole family. In addition to the swimming pool and the Olympic ice rink, the centre also offers tennis and squash courts, a climbing wall and a sports hall. The Palau de Gel has individual or family tickets to combine entry to Splash with ice skating or the climbing wall.
