Visitor Reviews of Masella
Skier from Barcelona, Spain from Spain writes:
Masella is a great ski resort for many reasons:
*Ski slopes (including slopes in the forest) for all skier levels, from beginners to expert skiers.
*Great snow quality (well treated and maintained by Masella´s personnel).
*Excellent views from its ski slopes (French Pyrenees, Andorra, Cerdanya Valley...) and...
*Just 1.5 hours away from Barcelona!
Perfect for a ski weekend and also for a 1-day ski trip with family and friends!
In my view, the best ski resort in the eastern Pyrenees!
