The Pirin/Rhodope Mountains region

Nestled between the Pirin, Rila & Rhodope mountain ranges, the ancient town of Bansko is located at the foot of the Pirin National Park - this unique environment is listed as a UNESCO World Cultural and National Heritage site. The beauty in this area can be enjoyed during all seasons and offers a variety of activities.
Winter: Skiing, snowboarding, tobogganing
Summer: Hiking,cycling, fishing, horse riding, sight seeing, white water rafting, golf

Pirin is noted for its rich flora and fauna. Much of the area is forested, with the best conifer woods in Bulgaria, holding important populations of the Balkan endemic species Macedonian Pine, Bosnian Pine and Bulgarian Fir. Animals include the Wolf and the Brown Bear.

The Bansko / Glazne area

Bansko is the newest and the most rapidly developing ski resort in Bulgaria. 40 million Euro has 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. Fantastic, child friendly (English speaking) ski and Snowboard schools for all levels of ability. Bansko has the best snow record and the longest ski season (mid Dec - mid May) of all Bulgarian ski resorts. Snow cannons (there are 160) cover most of the slopes and make the ski season last even longer. The slopes offer runs and tracks for all types of skiers and will suit both beginners and experts.

There are 14 pistes totalling 65km, including a unique 16-kilometre uninterrupted skiing, starting from Todorka Peak at the highest point of the ski centre all the way to base station of the Gondola, a 7km floodlit run direct to Gondola, cross country and excellent off piste skiing. Top class snowboarding facilities including a funpark and halfpipe.

Bansko provides an interesting combination of natural beauty mixed with the unique atmosphere of an ancient Bulgarian town with old cobblestone streets and traditional taverns (Mehanas). Apres-ski is friendly, Bansko's nightlife is excellent with nightclub, bars and restaurants. The Mehanas offer great inexpensive local cuisine (grilled lamb, sausages and delicious shopska salad) and live folk music. There is even a casino, bowling alley and ice rink.

Bansko is a great place for families. The resort offers a ski and non-skiing kindergarten located by the bottom station of the Gondola lift. Children from 3-6 yrs. inc. are welcome at the club, where supervised activities are provided. For children 4-7 years, the package includes daily tuition (2 hours per day), skis, boots, lift pass (to the snow club only) and daily activities including outside snow fun!

Bansko is not only a great ski resort, but in the summer hosts one of Europe's largest International Summer Jazz Festivals, Bulgarian Folk Festival and many other cultural events. During the summer months Bansko is popular with visitors for white water rafting, canoeing, paragliding, mountain biking, horse riding, walking and trekking, mountain lake fishing, and shortly opening a golf course designed by Ian Woosnam. The nearby village of Banya, located only 5 km from the town, is known for its 27 thermal mineral springs.

South of Bansko is the Pirin National Park which is listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site and hosts bears, wolves and many rare species.

“Excellent!” We had such a great time in Bansko! It's a great place and Gerard's apartment was excellent value for money! It is very clean, in fact it's as good as brand new! You are close to... more

“Lovely modern apartment close to Bansko's old town” My husband & I stayed here in January with 2 friends of ours and had a great time. The apartment is nicely decorated, very warm and comfortable. It is located really near the old town which is great for going out at night. We ate out most nights but we stayed in and cooked a couple of nights too. I'd definitely recommend the traditional Bulgarian restaurant around the corner from the apartment. There was traditional dancing the night we were there so that was a novelty. There's lots of bars & restaurants/taverns to choose from in the old town. Prices are so reasonable. For skiing we had to get transport to the ski gondola. There is a lovely local guy Raicho and his wife who manage the building and Raicho brought us to and from the ski gondola everyday which was great. Very cheap too! The skiing conditions were good and we got reasonably priced ski hire. So all in all a fab ski holiday.

“very comfortable apartment with very helpful staff” I stayed here in February for a skiing trip. The apartment was very comfortable and had all the mod cons you would expect. The sauna and jacuzzi in the basement were great after a tough day on the slopes. It was our first stay in Bansko so we were glad to have the support of the property manager. They were happy to arrange eveything for us and had good advice in terms of ski hire and where to eat/drink in Bansko. The apartment is close to the center which makes it very convenient for going out at night. Overall we had a great holiday in Bansko with some good sking, a nice apartment and prices tha didn't break the bank.

“Tidy apartment, close to the old town” I had a great stay at this appartment. We had 6 people in our party which although fitted well, it's possibly a little small for this size and more for a party of 4. No sauna working at the time, but I'm sure it's all fixed now. If needed a cheap transport to the slopes were provide by a lovely local couple. Would definitely recommend staying here.

Guestbook for Todorka Views

"What a wonderful ski holiday. Bansko ticked all the boxes for us - good skiiing, a cute village with good value restaurants and bars, and the apartment was perfect for us. The communal area in the basement was a great place to hang out by the log fire and meet a few other guests on the nights we 'stayed in'." Ann Collins - Jan 2009.

"We had a wonderful time - it snowed and snowed! The apartment's location was perfect for us. The apartment was very comfortable, very cosy, all the mod-cons.... it had all we really needed. Your 24hr security guard was a true gent and very helpful! We hope to come back." B&L Preston and M&H Donegan - March 2008

"Warm, roomy, modern, stylish, comfortable furnishings (especially the beds) and everything worked! Your place was just as advertised. We loved Bansko - especially the Mehana just around the corner. The kids loved it! Thank you!" Bill, Margaret, Josh and Annie Lydon - March 2008
