In the winter Andorra is a snowy winter sports paradise in the high regions with many famous ski resorts and snow regions. It is possible to visit Andorra on a day trip from Barcelona. You can get there by car or bus - there are no flights into Andorra and no direct trains. This is because of its location at high altitude in the Pyrenees mountains.

If you have 2 days then you could take a bus to Andorra - stay the night and take the bus back the next day.
