What's the best route getting into France from Zaragoza?

I am travelling up to the UK in December to Calais,the question I need to ask is whats the best route getting into France from Zaragoza,is the Pyrenees unsafe due to snow or am I better going all the way up to Irun and crossing the border there.

Unless its actually snowing the Pyrenees are safe using the Somport tunnel and then heading to Oloron, then NW to the N10 at junction 10 where its free north to Poitiers.

Cheers m8,will be moving up to Angouleme after Spain.

So you know what I am talking about, i used to have a house south of Poitier. You have 2 major cultural shocks coming your way. 1 French prices for groceries, fruit and veg and 2 the weather for about 6 to 9 months of the year its atrocious compared to Spain, cold wet and windy or even cold with severe frosts. Oil central heating is expensive as well. Anyway good luck if you have alreaday decided.
