About La Molina
La Molina is Spain's oldest ski resort, having hosted the country's first organised ski races in 1908 and developed continuously since to offer 60km of varied terrain in the Catalan Pyrenees above the Cerdanya Valley — a broad, sun-drenched plateau on the Spanish-French border that enjoys the sunniest winter climate of any Pyrenean valley and has been a favoured retreat of the Barcelona bourgeoisie for over a century. Its 18 lifts serve a terrain profile strong in the intermediate range, with long, well-groomed blue and red runs on the lower Molina sector and more demanding terrain on the upper Supermolina face that includes several genuine black diamond runs and good off-piste opportunities in the gullies above 2,300m. La Molina is notable for having hosted multiple World Cup and Winter Olympic events — the 1992 Barcelona Winter Olympics used La Molina and adjacent Masella for their alpine events — and the resort's long history is visible in its mature infrastructure and the comfortable, well-established resort village at the base. Barcelona's proximity — a two-and-a-half-hour train journey to Puigcerdà in the Cerdanya valley, followed by a short transfer — makes La Molina the most accessible significant Pyrenean ski area for US travelers based in Catalonia's capital.
