Visitor Reviews of Masella


Rick Paris from UNITED KINGDOM writes:

Masella, what a frustrating ski resort. It must have some of the best ski terrain around. Very pretty, very interesting and something for everybody. You can even ski over to another resort. BUT! Snow is very unreliable in this area and when it does fall there never seems to be enough piste workers/machines to manicure it correctly. It's all very frustrating as this could be one of the best ski areas in the Pyrennes, but for the unpredictable weather. It's just too far east and too close to the med and global warming means it will get worse. Catch it right and you will have a ball!
