The Club, designed
for your well-being (maximum capacity: 30 persons):
The Club is located on the 3rd. floor of the centre, and is an exclusive
and restricted area, reserved for people following a 1 to 15-day programme.
Caldea accepts up to only 30 persons in the Club at any time which guarantees
you a relaxing atmosphere even if the general area gets crowded, as those
with only an entrance to the main spa do not have access to
the Club. On the other hand, people with a Club entrance have free
access to the installations at the Club and the Main Spa.
If the main spa is meant for those that just want to spend a few hours relaxing in thermal water after day's skiing or trekking, the Club is for those that want to take full advantage of Caldea's installations and services, to relax for a few days and to be spoilt by our professional staff.
The originality of the Club: a rich and welcoming decoration: an invitation for an imaginary voyage... the relaxing Aztecian pool set in a tropical garden with its flowing river... the tonifying grapefruit pool which softens your skin and which set in a Japanese garden... the relaxing pool set in a French garden, the perfect place to read a book... the warm marble slates which relax your back muscles... the relaxing water beds to drift off in and the Gaudi style aquatic bar and terrace.
The only programme available to groups is the 1-day Club access with either a 20' massage or a hydromassage milk bath with essential oils. For groups above 25 persons, the group must be split into 2. Example:
Saturday:
Group 1: Discovery programme
Group 2: Main Spa
Sunday:
Group 2: Main Spa
Group 2: Discovery programme

Snow-shoe trekking with barbeque
( 6 to 20 persons):
Once you have your snow-shoes on, we will leave
from "Peretols" (1950m) located near the "Soldeu El Tarter" ski resort.
After a few hundred metres, we will begin the easy climb towards the the
little mountain hut called "Les Pedres" (2160m, 1h), located on a superb
open and sunny plateau. Those that want to can continue to the
Enradort pass (2448m) whilst the remainder of the group prepares
the barbeque and enjoys an "apéritif". When everyone is back
together, we'll have a good pic-nic / BBQ before descending back to Peretols.
All participants must bring a small back-pack with an extra T-shirt, a change
of clothes and a water bottle but leaving a little extra space in order to
help carry up the food. Boots are not included. We strongly recommend
trekking boots. If you don't have any, high tennis shoes or even small
moon-boots will do. The excursion is easy and not dangerous.
Children are welcome. Included in the price: rental of snow shoes,
guide and pic-nic.
Skiing:
There are 5 ski resorts in Andorra, at an altitude
ranging up to 2.600 metres with over 200 km of marked pistes and 90
lifts, spread over the 5 resorts. 660 snow cannons ensure good conditions
throughout the season and most resorts offer marked trails for those that
prefer cross-country skiing. Group ski-days can be organised, with
or without a guide or a ski teacher. Helicopter transfers between the
resorts can be arranged.

a white-water river in a rubber raft such as a "Zodiac".
The 2 x 4 m. rafts have a capacity of 6 persons
plus a certified instructor, responsible for steering the raft and
instructing the team. Rafting is an intense and exiting sport
but which is not dangerous. In "La Seu d'Urgell", a town located
at a 30-minute drive from the centre of Andorra's capital, one finds the
"Parc del Segre", host of the Barcelona Olympics kayak events,
which organises rafting on its 900m long artificial white-water river (6
cubic meters p/second). Price includes: 4 descents with a certified instructor,
first-class rafts and equipment (helmet, wetsuit, K-way, boots and

Canoeing (Parc del Segre, 6 to
35 persons):

not as easy at it looks. Canoes can take one to two persons. Great
opportunity for land-lubbers to take their first steps on water. Price

and equipment (helmet, wetsuit, K-way, boots and life-jacket), insurance,

Included in the price: certified instructor, first-class equipment (wetsuit,
ropes, climbing equipment and harnesses). Time: about 2h30'. Can
be combined with rafting.
Jeep excursion:
A fun way to discover the remote parts of Andorra
is with a jeep. You will be driving your own rented Suzuki Vitara or
Samurai in a convoy along sometimes difficult dirt-tracks hence used by smugglers
and have lunch in the little mountain village of Os de Civis after a 3 to
4 hour drive. Included in the price: jeep rental, petrol, insurance, lunch
and a guide with his jeep.
Adventure day 1 (jeep excursion
+ rafting or canyoning):

over mountain passes and deep gorges until reaching the Noguera river where

in a typical restaurant, we will return to Andorra via the old smuggler routes.
Price includes: jeep rental, petrol, insurance, first-class rafts and
equipment (helmet, wetsuit, K-way, boots and life-jacket), lunch and certified
guides.

Museum of Traditions (Areni de
Plandolit in the typical village of Ordino):
Guided tour of this fascinating 17th century
fully furnished mansion which reveals many interesting aspects of life in
Andorran history and of the well-to-do family that lived there (wine cellars,
kitchens, dentist's surgery!, bakery, library, collections, etc. etc.).
The tour lasts about 45' and is well worth it, even for people that are not
very enthousiastic about museums.
The "Casa de la Vall" (house of
the valley):
Guided tour of Europe's smallest parliament,
created in 1419, and which is still used up until this day. Tour of
the different halls, presidential gifts, the famous cupboard with seven keys
and explanations on Andorra's governmental system.
The silent valleys:
Visit the unspoiled valleys of Andorra, often
overlooked by tourists that only know the bustling city centre. The
north-western part of the country, in harmony with nature and full of contrasts,
with high peaks and deep valleys gives a very different and peaceful impression
of the country.

Tapas restaurant (max. 30 personnes):
Typical tapas bar where the locals go, only
15 minutes by car from the centre of town. The restaurant is not very
pretty with its neon lights and plastic table clothes, a blaring TV showing
either bullfights or football and waiters running around like madmen.
The first sip of the house wine is a little rough but the food is exquisite:
about a dozen of small plates (tapas) of delicious food such as octopus,
squid, shrimp, local ham, kebabs, snails, their famous "patatas bravas",
meat balls, etc.
