Àliga is a World Cup downhill ski course in southwestern Europe in Soldeu, Andorra; its World Cup debut was ten years ago in 2016.

In the eastern Pyrenees, this course hosted the speed events for two World Cup season finals for both men and women in mid-March 2019 and 2023; the technical events were held on the nearby Avet course. Federica Brignone won the first World Cup event here, a women's super-G in late February 2016.[1]
