Andorra Mountains, Slopes and Shopping

Andorra is a small independent co-principality in the Pyrenees Mountains between Spain and France. The country is mainly known for its tourism due to the many ski resorts here, and as it is a tax haven, for some fabulous duty-free shopping.

Due to its location in the Pyrenees, the country’s landscape is a rugged, mountainous backdrop to the main valleys dotted between the peaks. Catalan is the country’s only official language, and it is the only country in the world to have this as its official language.

Winter Wonderland

The country is a popular tourist destination due to its warmer summers, cold winters with plenty of snow, and the chance to indulge in some tax-free shopping.

With a population of around 80,000 people, this tiny country relies heavily on the tourism industry, and many ski resorts entice skiers into the area. Andorra is one of the best places in Europe to ski and, in particular, learn, and the resorts here are of a high standard.

The nightlife within the ski areas is also particularly good – so it’s an all-around fantastic destination for those winter sports lovers.

Peak Adventure

The capital city, Andorra la Vella, the highest city in Europe, is also one of the leading spa capitals of the world. Thermal springs can be found all over the country, and a wealth of spas can be enjoyed alongside a ski break.

The life expectancy of citizens in Andorra is 80 years for men and 84 for women, making it the 8th highest in the world. The combination of a strong infrastructure, a strong economy due to the high levels of tourism, and the outdoor lifestyle make Andorra one of the best places to live in the world and certainly a great destination to visit.
