Sierra Nevada goes (almost) to 100

The ski and mountain resort of Sierra Nevada has reached today, with 97 kilometres (118 slopes), the largest skiable surface since the 2019/20 season thanks to the accumulations of snow registered during the past weekend, with up to 2 metres in areas such as Borreguiles.

The opening of almost all the slopes in the Laguna area and a good part of the runs in the Parador-Cauchiles area has allowed Sierra Nevada to reach the last third of the season in the best moment of the 23/24 winter season.

The resort is also recovering some of the facilities affected by the storm, such as the snowpark, which from this weekend will have around 30 modules on both sides of the Loma de Dílar chairlift, as well as a platform in the big jumps sector, which will be used for the Spanish Slopestyle Championships on the weekend of 23 and 24 March.

Meanwhile, this weekend the resort will host four official sporting competitions: the Reyes Santa Olalla and Nazarí bumps trophies, as well as the White Camp and Club Monachil alpine skiing trophies, both of which count towards the Jesús Serra inclusive trophy.

Sierra Nevada also brings back the music sessions in Borreguiles with the performance of the DJs Julián Movilla and Rober Peinado this Friday 15th March on the Chill Out terrace.

Also, the activities for non-skiers in the Borreguiles area are back and the Mirlo blanco activities are still open in Pradollano with its toboggans, sledges, ice rink and Mirlo sledge.

The weather forecast for the next few days predicts predominantly clear skies, no significant winds and slightly rising temperatures.
