The Pirin/Rhodope Mountains region

Pamporovo is the pearl of the Bulgarian mountain resorts, and nestles in the heart of the Rhodope Mountains, 260 km from the capital Sofia, and 85 km south of the city of Plovdiv. It is close to the Greek border, and is the southern-most ski resort in Europe. In the summer, Pamporovo is a major walking centre for Bulgaria. The Ski lifts run all year, so for those of feint heart, the walking can all be down-hill!

If you cannot ski, this is not a problem; the ski-school in Pamporovo is one of the best in Europe. Highly qualified instructors, speaking at least two foreign languages, train beginners from scratch, in groups or individually. Both Skiing and Snowboading are catered for.

The Pamporovo resort is recommended by the experts as a good place both for both beginners and experienced skiers. The mountain with its rounded forms is friendly, even to children. The ski tracks of Pamporovo have all degrees of difficulty. Most of the tracks start from the very peak. There are three cross-country runs in Pamporovo. In the 9 ski-wardrobes near the tracks, you can find over 2000 ski outfits and equipment, snow-boards and sleighs. Skiers who bring their own equipment can also use these wardrobes for safe keeping.

The mountain rescue service works 24 hours a day, taking care of the security of the skiers. The ski-kindergarden is open from 8.30 am to 5.00 pm.

How to get there

Fly Bulgaria Air to Sofia in the summer months, and get taxi to Pamporovo (about £40 in '04. Negotiate fare before departure!), or hire a car to enjoy wider sightseeing during your stay. In the skiing season there are weekly flights into Plovdiv, where there are buses, taxis and pre-arraged transfer facilities available.
