Spain isn't the first place one thinks of as a ski destination but there is plenty of good snow in the Spanish Pyrenees. La Pleta in Baqueria-Beret offers downhill, cross-country and heli skiing as well as snowshoeing and ice skating for those who prefer not to ski. The resort includes a library stocked with books and DVDs, a personal boot butler took take care of your alpine gear and the Occitania Spa to tend to your aching muscles.
