Winter Season

 



Pyrenees Pastimes is based in the ski resort of Formigueres, boasting amazing scenery, with its pine lined pistes meandering down from 2400 metres to the base station at 1700 and just 5kms away from Les Angles resort. One pass covers eight amazing and different ski areas all located near our base, around the Capcir and Cerdagne plateau. Each resort is unique, family orientated and offering something for all levels.

Skiing - Snowboarding - Snow Shoe Trekking - Nordic Skiing - Dog Sledding - Snow Kiting- Thermal Pools



Out of school holidays there are rarely any queues allowing fantastic skiing for first time skiers, the more advanced and also great for families too. There is more than one ski school to choose from offering tuition in english, french and spanish, ESF and ESI.

This magical, unspoilt, ski area high in the Capcir and Cerdagne valleys offers over 280 kms of well groomed pistes with a good ratio of greens, blues, reds and blacks.
We have a high percentage of pistes covered by snow cannons to ensure the best conditions.

Snowparks are at most resorts supporting half pipes, jumps and rails, all very reasonably priced too.

Formigueres and another 8 ski resorts are covered by just one ski pass, the "Neiges Catalanes" offering some serious skiing.


Other activities to try include a trip to Villefranche on the mountain railway, a visit to the Pyrenean animal park, ice skating, bowling, a relaxing day at thermal pools, enjoy a massage and spa treatments, husky sledding or perhaps a tandem parapent. For the shoppers, Andorra is just 70 kms away!
