La Molina and Masella as a Family: The Best Options for the Little Ones

When you go skiing with children in the Cerdanya, the first question is usually a very practical one: should I leave my child in Masella or in La Molina? Although the Alp2500 lift pass joins the two resorts under a single ski area, each one organises its own children's offering separately. In fact, both are part of a small group of resorts in the Catalan Pyrenees -along with Espot, Port Ainé, Vallter 2000, Vall de Núria and Boí Taüll- certified as family-friendly facilities by the Catalan Tourism Agency, which requires meeting specific conditions: marked-off slopes with slow-speed zones for children, a kids' club and its own ski school. Here's the full breakdown, resort by resort.

Kids' Playgrounds and Options for Children in Baqueira

The Aran Valley holds the Family Tourism Seal, and at Baqueira Beret this shows in something very concrete. There isn't a single, generic "kids' playground," but rather several parks spread across different areas of the resort, each designed for a specific age range, from 6 months old up to the point where the child already skis on their own. Here's the full breakdown.

Where to eat in La Molina and La Masella: restaurant guide

In the La Molina and Masella ski area, the dining plan is split between the slopes of the two resorts themselves and a couple of villages in the Cerdanya, a few minutes away by car. Alp, the closest one, and Puigcerdà, the capital of the region, with much more variety if you're looking to get away from the resort area.
