Its quite good for beginners in Arinsal in Andorra ..lots of English speaking instructors and not too busy and its only about 3hrs for you ..I think they do a beginners package ..or so one of the instructors was saying this afternoon..The snow nsnt bad at the moment and they do forecast a bit more tonight

I have skied Spain and Andorra over the years and I have found all three visits very enjoyable, I don't consider it to be the poor relation to the alps I have always found the snow good, out of the two places my preference would be for La Molina in Spain.
The reason I stopped visiting is I started driving to my ski destination, and my preference was for the alps as I could get there quicker, give the Pyrenees a go it is worth a visit.
