Font-Romeu

At an altitude of 1,800m, the mountain resort of Font-Romeu is far removed from the purpose built ski resorts found elsewhere in Europe.

Steeped in history, its churches date back to Roman times and its rich cultural tapestry can be read in its emblematic buildings: le Grand Hôtel, la chapelle de l’Ermitage….

With 2,000 permanent inhabitants, the town is ‘open’ all year-round.

In summer, discover the fabulous walking, running and riding tracks away from the heat of the plains.

In winter, enjoy over 40 km of downhill ski runs and over 100 km of cross country skiing in the sunniest resort in France!

Whether a day, a weekend, a week or longer, check out the list of events and entertainment during your visit here!

SO MUCH TO DO

From modest beginnings, the winter resort now boasts over 60 pistes served by 25 lifts (piste map & details here), and 110 kilometres of ski trails for cross country skiing, nordic walking or snowshoeing.

Hopefully this year will see plenty of white stuff falling from the skies, but equipped with state of the art snow canons, Font Romeu is able to provide great skiing conditions, whatever the weather!

As well as skiing in all its forms, Font Romeu is a mecca for hiking, climbing, horse riding, paragliding… It’s also a centre of excellence for elite and professional athletes, including the French national centre for biathlon and the Centre National d’Entraînement en Altitude (CNEA).

Some of our faves

Why not book a meal at La Gallinera, the restaurant at the 2 217 m. sommet. To make it even more fun, go there by fat bike, ski de randonnée, on foot, or by snow groomer (dameuse)! (From 90 euros /person.)
Look out for “Full Moon” events, where you ski, guided by moonlight and music, and finish off with a glass of wine.
For Valentine’s day, book a meal up in the télécabines, provided by the chef from a different restauranteur every year.
It’s carnival time (1st March). Don’t forget to prepare a fancy costume when you ski at the Col de La Llose!
White Week / Semaine Blanche offer: from 11th till 17th January, everything is 40% off on stays for 4/5/6 days.
Races, events, prizes and many more all through the season.

You can now book everything at once on their website: hotel, skis, lessons,…as well as pay in 3 or 4 instalments

There are multiple offers for kids, families, groups. Check out the Skizam card, a sort of top-up card, that gives you 20% off and works in both Font Romeu and Saint-Lary de Soulan.
