Psssst! Can you keep a secret? Baqueira-Beret is a hidden gem of a skiing resort in the Spanish Pyrenees - its unique charm is only enjoyed by those in the know. A favourite of the Spanish Royal Family and loved by locals, there's an authentic Spanish vibe in Baq. Magnífico!
Intermediate runs sprawl down the slopes in every direction, so you can warm up with cruisey blues in the morning, then hurtle down swift reds after lunch. Offpiste thrill-seekers have endless opportunities for free-ride adventures. And the heliskiing is wild. Vámonos!
Baqueira-Beret is blessed with an extra hour of sunlight compared to the Alps. Cue longer days on the hill! There's good snow here from December to April. And the cannons are on standby to top up the pistes when needed.
Want to avoid busy slopes at Half-Term? Baqueira-Beret should be top of your list - Spanish kids don't take a break at this time of year, so you'll have the mountains to yourself. Bliss!
Early birds can make the most of fresh corduroy during February and March - catch a lift at dawn and make first tracks as the sun rises over the spectacular Aran Valley.
Things to do in Baqueira-Beret
Thirsty? Down a pint of ice-cold San Miguel on a warm sun terrace. Or stop at the Moet Lounge to toast a fun day on the hill with a glass of fizz. Salud! Baqueira-Beret operates on Spanish time, so an après ski siesta is a must.
Then head out for a late dinner. Local restaurants serve up traditional tapas, and the tipple of choice is a smooth rioja. Join in with the party and dance til dawn in a late-night bar. Or, if you fancy a night off the booze, explore nearby valleys and ancient villages by snowmobile or dog sleigh.
