Pas de la Casa-Grau Roig ski resort is located in the east of Andorra, close to the French border. Travellers can only arrive directly by road, with flight, rail and bus combinations also available. The most popular way to get here is to fly to Barcelona, or Toulouse, and take a (return) scheduled bus, or hire a car. Good highways make self-drive popular and you can also take a train from the UK to within 13kms of the resort.

The nearest international airport is Toulouse-Blagnac; however, Barcelona’s El Prat de Llobregat Airport has more flight options. Two daily Novatel coaches go from Blagnac to Pas de la Casa (€20, one way; €37, return) and four a day from El Prat (€33, one way; €62, return). A train and bus combination goes from Toulouse’s Matabiau station and also from El Prat. Car hire is more convenient.

Allow two days if you are driving from Calais. The journey is 1,143kms along major tolled autoroutes, via Paris, Limoges and Toulouse, and finishing on the N-22/E-9 to Pas de la Casa.
