Comment from Erin R

When you think of Spain, skiing doesn’t really come to mind, now does it? Well, it should. With ski resorts sprinkled around the country, chances are that, during winter, a snowy excursion is only a short drive away.

Pyrenees

The Pyrenees are undoubtedly the hottest (or make that coolest) spot to hit the slopes in Spain. Straddling the French border, they are a high-altitude playground for posh-types and committed ski enthusiasts. Even better: the nearest resort is only about a three-hour drive from Barcelona. And there are loads of resorts to choose from, too, spanning two of Spain’s border regions — Catalonia and Aragon — and even the tiny country of Andorra.
