Other factors such as north
facing slopes or the proximity of Mont-Blanc mean higher snow levels
throughout the season. With modern snow making facilities most resorts
are suitable for skiing until the last week of April. Ski areas with 50km of pistes are
usually more that sufficient for a week of intermediate skiing. Experts
skiers find that areas of 100km plus of pistes are again more than
enough for a week of fun. His directory can give you information on ski
holidays in the French Pyrenees - just click on the links. The whole
area of the Pyrenees comprises 38 resorts, and some 1000km of cross
country skiing available. The largest ski area is shared by Barèges and
La Mongie, around 120km of pistes. Other famous Pyrenean resorts include
Font Romeu, which has the biggest snow-making set up in the Pyrenees,
