car travel from Barcelona to Bordeaux
What is the best route for car travel between Barcelona and Bordeaux in early March? I am concerned about winter driving through the Pyrenees. Should I be?

There are no mountain passes between Barcelona and Bordeaux if you follow the main highway. Head north from Barcelona and hang a left before Narbonne, taking the A-61 to Toulouse, where you pick up the A-62 to Bordeaux.

Robert is correct.Allow for about 6 hours, because you will be delayed at tolls without access to the automatic lanes. There is no need to go through the Pyrenees unless you want to pass through Andorra for shopping.
