The Pirin/Rhodope Mountains region
Nestled in the southwest corner of Bulgaria are the compact Pirin Mountains(2585 sq km), named after the Slavic god of thunder. Over the centuries, Greeks, Turks and Slavs have been attracted to these mountains because of the mineral waters and 186 pristine lakes, often partially frozen in winter. The highest point is Mt Virin(2915m).
The gateway to the Pirin National Park, which is only a few minutes walk from the Tamplier complex, is permanently open and free to enter and is Bulgaria's largest at 40,447 hectares. It was placed on Unesco's list of World Heritage Sites in 1983 to protect the varied and unique lanbrings dscapes, 1100 species of flora, 102 types of birds and 42 species of mammals. The snow record is excellent, and often lasts from November until mid May, however the summer months, (end of May - beginning of October), are usually very warm and sunny, the greek border is only 1.5 hours drive away!
Bansko / Tamplier area
Once just a quiet medieval village, Bansko has been subject to massive government and foreign investment over the last few years, and now features the newest and most state of the art Gondola ski lift out of any European ski resort.
The ancient compliments the modern perfectly with the old part of the village just a 5 minute walk away from Tamplier complex.
Whether you are a beginner or advanced, a snowboarder or skiier, the slopes in Bansko cater for everyone. The snow cannons and lifts are state of the art, and lessons are extremely cheap.Try the unique 7km ski run all the way from the pistes to the village!
Apres ski in Bansko is superb, with everything from modern restaurants to trendy bars and nightclubs. The best restaurants though are any one of the literally 100's of "mehanas" or taverns found in the old town which provide traditional Bulgarian cuisine at exceptionally low prices. Prepare to experience some real Bulgarian hospitality and culture at these mehanas, live music is often on offer. Expect to pay no more than 5 Euros for a two course meal with drinks! Or eat in Tamplier's 4* restaurant, again at excellent prices.
The summer months offer many activities such as walking, mountain biking, fishing or swiming in any one of the many natural lakes in the mountains.
Marked hiking trails, 13 primary and 17 secondary, link 13 huts and shelters throughout the Pirin National Park and many shuttle buses are available throughout the summer months to take hikers, sightseers and day trippers up through the fragrant, pine covered mountainside to the beginning of these uncrowded trails.
The town of Bansko lies approx. 5 min walk to the north of Tamplier, (www.tamplier.com), and is home to more than 150 cultural monuments, including many from the Bulgarian national revival period.
Most of the shops and cafes are located along the pedestrian mall,"ul Tsar Simeon" along with banks, post office and ATM's.
The International Jazz Festival takes place around the 7th-15th of August and is a big summer attraction in Bansko with artists coming from all over Bulgaria and abroad
