  This is a reasonable resort for a weekend. The pistes are wide and we found them to be well groomed. They are slightly over graded - the blacks would only be red in most resorts - but of a good length. This is the only resort I've ever skied where you can ski from the top of the resort to the bottom on a green piste!
  If you are a good skier you can ski all the runs in one day which may not make it a good choice for a long trip but good fun for a weekend.
  The main negative of the resort is the food. Whether it be on the piste (the worst croque monsieur ever), at the start of the lifts or even down in Font Romeu itself. Do not expect service with a smile, in fact at times do not even expect service!
  On the whole, pop in if you are in the area.

  Font Romeu is a very noce little ski resort in the Eastern Pyrenees. Its proximity to Perpingon airport is great.60 mins from airport carpark to hotel.
  The town is compact and has a mainline train station. The skiing area is small/medium sized, it is joined with a nearby resort called Pyrenees 2000. Lots of the runs are very suitable for nervous skiers. Long, wide paths through trees. The scenery is very nice and the slopes gentle in the main. There are a couple of blacks but they are short and unreliable for snow. The resort has around 500 snow cannons but the weather is often warm. I loved the resort as the skiing was interesting enough for 3 days and there are several other similar sized resorts nearby. Novice skiers 10/10, experienced 6/10.
