The best thing about skiing in Spain, apart from natural splendors, is the fact that it is prominently cheaper than other Western European countries. December to May is the time apt for skiing when the mountains are sufficiently covered with snow. The most famous resorts in Spain are Sierra Nevada, the Pyrenees and Galicia, Leon and Cantabria in ranges on northern side of Madrid. Pyrenees is probably the most famous among die hard skiers who want some world class slopes and Sierra Nevada is popular among tourists who are just looking for a taste of skiing in Spain and then move on to another attraction of the country. The best thing about Sierra Nevada is the fact that you can enjoy skiing and visit beaches on the same day.
