We ski Luz Ardiden regularly, a great small resort with nice snow park and good runs. It's a good family station with some challenging pistes as well. Snow is generally good and you are not in the Alps, which is great. It's less busy, cheaper accommodation and food. A popular station with the Spanish and for good reason, the town and surrounding area are beautiful. From Luz St Sauveur you can ski, Luz, Tourmalet La Mongie, Gavarnie and Cauterets. Also many natural hot springs with luxurious thermal baths in the area. You can buy combination Thermes/Ski tickets.
