Histoire

Comment le site est né

The resort opened in 1964 with a single chairlift from Baqueira village at 1,500 m. It grew steadily up the mountain and over into the Beret plateau and the Bonaigua sector, and has long been the winter base of the Spanish royal family, which cemented its reputation as the country's smart ski destination.
