Andorra is one of the more recent success stories of world skiing. With millions invested in new hotels, gondolas, high speed lifts, grooming machines and facilities; Andorra is fast becoming a world-class ski destination. Most of the five major ski areas have expanded rapidly over the past thirty years; helped by the combined reputation for good snow, warm sunshine and the country’s duty-free status.
The principality of Andorra is set high in the Pyrenees between France and Spain. Andorra has so much to offer -- an excellent snow record, long sunny days, great après ski -- all for a fantastic value. This resort destination has something for every grade of skier or snowboarder and is particularly suitable for beginners and intermediates.
Though only the size of a medium U.S. city, Andorra has a large nation’s worth of culture with museums, art, restaurants, and great shopping. Even the weather has its marks of distinction – though its mountain climate ensures superb winter snowfall, Andorra is only a few hours away from the sunny, glistening French Riviera. The country boasts five ski resorts with a total of over 7100 acres of slopes (all within 20 miles of each other). Finally, although Andorra's wealth and richness might make shopping seem expensive, their virtually tax-free system provides unbelievable bargains.
