The Pirin/Rhodope Mountains region
Bansko is the newest and the most rapidly developing ski resort in Bulgaria. 40 million Euros have been invested creating state of the art ski lifts, electronic ski pass system, snow canons, and new gondola, whilst still retaining the atmosphere of the ancient Bulgarian small town.
There are 14 pistes totalling 65km, including a 16km, a 7km floodlit run direct to Gondola, cross country and excellent off piste skiing. Top class snowboarding facilities including a halfpipe.
Fantastic, child friendly (English speaking) ski schools for all levels of ability. The ski season is one of the longest; roughly mid December until the mid April.
Apres-ski is friendly, Bansko's nightlife is excellent with nightclub, bars and restaurants. The traditional taverns 'Mehana' offer great inexpensive local cuisine (grilled lamb, sausages and a must try shopska salad) live folk music. There is even a casino, bowling alley and ice rink.
