Abstract
The contrast between regions of unequal economic development has given varying characters and different characteristics to tourist activity on both sides of the frontier. Spanish mountain-climbers like the mountain peaks on the French side. People taking waters in spas of holidaying in summer are drawn towards Spain by the low prices of some goods and some kind of local colour which is beginning to wear off in fact. The vagaries of the borderline or the differences in political status make this even more striking in Cerdagne, Valle de Aran and Andorra where tourism has become an industry and is nearly unbearable. Pilgrimages, leisure activities and festivals in the main towns of the two mountain-border regions add to the complexity of exchanges over the border.
