Skiing in Andorra

When you think of Spain or the south of France - the first thing that usually comes to mind is not skiing. However, the Pyrenees mountain range that straddles the border between the two countries offers dozens of ski resorts ranging in size and terrain.One of the more popular areas is Andorra – which is actually a Principality, nestled on the mountain range. About a 3 hour drive from Barcelona and Toulouse, this mountainous region has several top-notch resorts that offer excellent skiing from beginners to experts.

The largest resort, Pas de la Casa is comprised of several ski resorts into one. With peaks close to 3000 meters, the skiing/snowboarding is not only challenging but offers breath-talking views of the area. Andorra is also known for the shopping because of their low sales tax. There are numerous shops selling electronics, jewelry and cosmetics.If you are looking for a unique get away and you are in the neighborhood.

I highly recommend planning on Andorra for a skiing break with a difference. In terms of skiing accommodation, then an example is a 6 person Andorra apartment such as Apartment Soldeu.
