Baqueira Beret is a ski resort in the Pyrenees of Catalonia. Baqueira is the largest and most visited winter resort in Spain. It is popular among the Royal family and the Spanish aristocracy, and affluent Spaniards and French tourists. Much of the region of the Aran Valley and Àneu Valley is made up of over 50 small rural populations, each one with stone and wood houses and ancient Romanesque churches. The resort was founded 60 years ago on the initiative of the local authorities in the Aran Valley.
