Can you ski from the slopes of Pyrenees 2000 all the way down to the town Font Romeu??

vonce66, not sure exactly what you mean? P2000 is linked to Font Romeu ski station, by a drag lift (although I think there is due to be a chairlift there this year). From the ski station you can, theoretically, ski down to the town under the cable car, but it's not a particularly fun route. Why do you ask?

rainman, last year we went to Font Romeu and skied the les airelles side as it had all the green runs, we never made it down the back side to P2000 (we were there 2 days) we stayed in the town of Font Romeu and drove up. We didnt realise there was a gondala. So this year we will stay in FR and take the Gondala up, it would be fun to ski down, but was not sure if it is possible. This year we are there longer and should get to explore the p2000 side of the resort. We went and are going early Jan. Last year we had great snow

vonce66, P2000 is definitely worth the trip - a few longer, cruisey reds and blues over there, pus a couple of relatively challenging blacks. Often a bit quieter than Les Airelles, as well. You should be able to ski back to FR under the gondola, but you'll need the snow to be pretty good. I've been over there every year for the last four and, to be honest, the snow has always been excellent. If you're there for a week and have transport, it's worth taking a trip to one of the other resorts/ stations, such as Les Angles (very alpine style) or Puigmal (high, rugged and full of mental Spaniards). What takes you from Oklahoma to the Pyrenees?!

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

Thanks rainman. I'm english with family in southend. We go back to the UK at xmas and We have access to an apartment in St Cyprien and last year we went there and then up to the mountain. Its just a quick easy, economic ski trip, with freinds. This year we will just go straight up to FR and get 3 days.
We will get on the back side this year.
I'm anxious to see it snow there.
