    Easy skin up the road. Line to ski down depends on the snow cover. Beautiful place, and being north-facing, the face holds powder. But if the snow cover is thin (as it mostly is) there are a lot of rocks just under the s...

    A lovely tour up a slope where local ski tourers don't often go. Fun skiing back down, the cleanest line down involves a 30m skin up to escape the pla d'Estany, rather than do an awkward traverse through the trees furthe...

    Dangerous route to descend. Several buggy drops where we had to return up because there was no snow. And if there to much snow it's dangerous because of avalanche.

    Great loop, although we skied it on a day of wild avalanche activity. Very unusual for Andorra. The traverse right on the descent was to avoid steeper slopes, given the conditions. Normally you can do a fun ski straight ...

    This is a great one to do if you have some fresh snow (but not to much to be a serious avalanche risk). The descent into Rialb is lovely, but as you'll see from the very short trees suffers avalanches occasionally. It...
