Poster: A snowHead
|
Ok so not strictly skiing related, but it is mountain related!!
I'm driving down to my Moms in Spain at Easter, and will be passing through the Pyrenees.
Does anyone have any suggestions of scenic routes to take?
And also the potential likelihood that such routes may be snowy/icey (during day!).
Any advice greatly welcome!

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

davejsy,
Drove the other way from Spain to France in September 2010. Drove up and over the Col d'Aubisques (Sp?) and through a couple of ski areas whose names escape me. Beautiful scenery, very dramatic. Naturally there was no snow in September and I can't help with snow depths.
From the French side the reverse route would start at Lourdes along the D821 and then the D918 over the Col and then the D934 crossing the border at El Portalet.

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

Depends which bit of Spain you're going to - if down towards the south coast, then Carcassonne - Quillan - Axat - Mont Louis - Puigcerda is scenic then either via Manressa or Ripoll down to Barca.
The small road that goes from South of Perpignan up the valley past Certet and Arles to Camprodon is quieter and just as scenic

Michelle, I don't think I can amend the title? I agree though, it could have been more descriptive. . . .
