Bansko area
Bansko is a charming and historic town with a stunning alpine backdrop. A climatic mountain resort, Bansko is known as an alpine skiing, hiking and climbing centre. It combines it's natural beauty and outdoor opportunities with the atmosphere of an ancient Bulgarian town from the tenth century and boasts a wealth of culture and history.
Bansko is the newest ski destination in Bulgaria and has the best snow record and longest season, Mid December to early May. There has been an enormous amount of investment in recent years in order to develop the ski facilities, which give easy access to the 65 kilometres on marked ski runs. Ski lessons and ski hire are much cheaper that other european destinations, which makes it ideal for the first time skier, but has something to offer all levels.
Once you are there, you can get around on foot very easy, so you won't need your own transport if you are there purely for the skiing. There are a host of good value restaurants in Bansko and booking isn't generally a problem, apart from busy times such as New. Numerous bars play live music every night.
If you aren't adventerous, there are several 4 and 5* hotels and spa's locally that are open to non - residents and for a small charge. You can even have a dip in the heated outdoor pool at the 5* Hotel Kempinski and watch the skier's go past!!
