Advice Please - Andorra In January
Started by User in Andorra, 11 Replies
Been a while but I have doen Andorra from Barcelona

My advice would be to take the train/bus: we hired cars and got to Pas de la Casa no bother. However epic snow over the week meant we spent 24 hours digging the cars out (and everyone elses that was in our way in the car park). At least with public transport its their problem not yours!

Andorra isnt too steep or deep and if you want off oiste you'll need a guide anyway so I'd contacvt the ski school in either pas or Soldeu (the two ends of the Gran Valira wehich is the main area) and see what they reccomend

As for hire shops - there are dozens and Ive personally never had a bad experience in any of them

Borovets ski pass, buy home or resort?
Started by User in Bulgaria, 17 Replies
Not been to Borovets myself but know plenty of peeps who have, and like Dave Mac and Ranchero have said, they all reported on top class ski schools.

Its not the largest of areas but that isnt necessarily important. I'd personally buy there as its the sort of place where deals can be done first hand (so Im told)
