The Sofia/Rila Mountains region
Borovets is the oldest international and most popular mountain resort in Bulgaria. It is located at 1350m with the highest pistes at 2600 m on the Northern slopes of the Rila mountain. It is set among age-old pine woods, at the foot of Mousala peak (2925 m) the highest one on the Balkan peninsula.
Established at the end of the 19th century as a hunting place for the Bulgarian kings, Borovets gradually developed into a modern ski resort of high class and luxury hotels, haute-cuisine restaurants and varied leisure-time entertainment opportunities besides the excellent network of ski runs and lifts. The resort is a regular host of various winter sports competitions and has twice hosted World Cup competitions in Alpine skiing.
Borovets is easily accessible with a distance of only 70 km from Sofia (the capital of Bulgaria) and 126 km from the second largest city Plovdiv.
Snow conditions are among the best in Eastern Europe and the season usually lasts from Mid December to April

There are 45 km of pistes varying in difficulty and length for skiing and snowboarding. There are ski runs for beginners, intermediates and advanced skiers, designed with international markings and multilingual signs. Several floodlit pistes also allow late night fun on the snow.
