# Font Romeu

No less than 3000 hours of sun per year have given the small town of Font-Romeu-Odeillo-Via in the Catalan Pyrenees the title of sunniest town in France. But not only those woh love and enjoy the sun, also winter sports fans who appreciate the diverse range of pistes and cross-country routes come here. The likeable winter sports resort was built in 1920 in the middle of the Pyrénées Catalanes Regional Nature Park and has become a magnet for followers of the Nordic disciplines. No wonder, after all, the ski resort of Font-Romeu and its neighboring station Pyrénées 2000 has 103 alpine routes in addition to 43 alpine pistes. Thus, Font-Romeu not only has the largest cross-country ski area of the Pyrenees, but also on the Plateau de la Calme between 2050 and 2213 meters to offer the highest network of routes in the Pyrenees.

Directly into the heart of the ski area, where both the alpine pistes and the numerous cross-country routes can be found, ski-goers of Font-Romeu arrive with just one gondola ride. With the Airelles gondola, it is 1964 meters above the sea level to the central meeting point of the piste area.
