  • Last year Felipe VI returned to Baqueira, the resort where he learned to ski

  • Without the Queen King Felipe's weekend getaway: friends, skiing, Sierra Nevada and good food

Taking advantage of the fact that there were no official events

on his agenda

, King Felipe VI left Zarzuela to practice one of his favorite sports,

skiing

. The Monarch has traveled to the

Baqueira Beret station,

in the Aran Valley, with a group of friends and without his wife, Queen Letizia, who is not very fond of snow. It is not the first time that the Kings make

separate plans

since the tastes for married leisure sometimes have nothing to do with each other.

According to the newspaper

Segre

, the Monarch

arrived on Friday night

and took the opportunity to have dinner with his companions at the

El Fogón del Valle

de Vielha restaurant. It was a

surprise for the owners

of the premises, since, although

they had a reservation

, it was not in the name of the King. The same media also details that Don Felipe spent

all Saturday morning

skiing at the resort, where the Borbón clan has a

property at the foot of the slopes

(La Pleta) at his disposal. It is a

three-story, 200-square-meter mountain house

, given in 1984 by businessmen in the area, for the use and enjoyment of the Royal Family.

It should be noted that

three weeks ago

the Head of State went skiing in the

Sierra Nevada with other friends,

among which the presence of

his cousin, Beltrán Gómez-Acebo

, son of Infanta Pilar, stands out. Also with them was

Pedro López-Quesada,

one of the most special friends of the King since his youth and husband of

Cristina de Borbón-Dos Sicilias.

The last time Felipe VI visited Baqueira was in February of last year, just a few days after the getaway of Iñaki Urdangarin and his girlfriend Ainhoa ​​Armentia, who were celebrating Valentine's Day in this home available to the Royal Family, which became in cause of great debate.  

According to the agenda of the Royal House, The King continues

his duties on the 19th

at the Zarzuela Palace where he has an audience with Wang Yi, Minister of Foreign Affairs of the People's Republic of China, member of the Political Bureau of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China (CPC).
