Enchanting valleys and majestic mountains populate the small state of Andorra, which offer some of the best spots for skiing on the whole continent. The ancient isolated territory of the country is located only 2 hours away from the Catalan capital of Barcelona. Yet you can enjoy running down the breathtaking backcountry in such close proximity to the urban landscape. And there’s guaranteed snowfall from December to April.
