Pyrenees next week.

Travelling back from Barcelona next week and obviously snow depending thinking of coming back through Foix. Stayed there before, in a campsite as aire looked suspicious so is there any other similar places as a one night stop over. Checking weather and if worst happens will come back via A9/A75 just we fancy different route as it seems so mild (fingers crossed).
Luckily we have 3msf, chains etc.

I guess you will go via Andorra, if so they have cameras that you can check what it looks like.

Looks like you're choosing to do it the hard way. The N260 is a bit tortuous and at 1700M far more likely to have slippery conditions.

Thanks cyberyacht, tbh don't normally come this late but had things going on. The foix pass didn't seem any better or worse than beisla way but that's normally spring/summer as we're not really doing Spain this time of year. Will obviously keep an eye out for weather as have a few more days anyway. Do you suggest a better route just hate lorry route as thought somport was still closed and last few days coldest near Foix is -2deg.

Rule of thumb for winter, stay low, stay coastal or something near that.
