The story

ISMF Comapedrosa Andorra World Cup in Arinsal/Comapedrosa

The ISMF Comapedrosa Andorra World Cup brings elite ski mountaineering to Arinsal each January with a Vertical Race from the Xalet Igloo and a full Individual Race the following day, run entirely on the resort's own slopes for easy spectating, plus an Open category letting recreational racers compete on the same course as the professionals.

Any recreational ski mountaineer can register for the Open category and race the identical course used by the World Cup's elite athletes on the same day, a rare level of access that sets the ISMF Comapedrosa Andorra World Cup apart from most elite winter sports events, where spectating is the only option available to non-professionals.

What is special

The part that makes it specific.

01

The place changes

Letting recreational ski mountaineers race the identical course as elite World Cup athletes through the Open category, with results counting toward a separate Andorra Ski Mountaineering Cup, is unusual access for a top-tier international winter sports event

02

The mystery stays covered

Routing the entire course across Arinsal's own resort slopes, rather than remote backcountry terrain, also makes this one of the more genuinely spectator-friendly World Cup ski mountaineering stops on the current international calendar
