Bulgarian ski resort "Bansko" is the most popular place in the country for an active winter holiday. In addition, it is considered one of the most prestigious on the Balkan Peninsula. The ski season opens at it at the very beginning of December and ends at the end of April. We liked everything there: and excellent ski slopes of various categories of complexity and very good service. The resort has hotels that have different categories.
We traveled to Bansko from Sofia, the road was approximately 150 kilometers. There is a resort at different heights from the sea level. This allows you to enjoy skiing with vacationers with different levels of preparation. For considerable and novice skiers, you can recommend the Todori highway, which has a length of 1690 meters. But the Balkania's highway, which has a length of more than 2 kilometers, is suitable for more experienced athletes.
Fans of various types of winter sports come to Bansko. Comfortable tracks here are also for snowboarders, and for biathletes, freestylers, gigantic and ordinary slalomes. In addition to lovers of outdoor activities, many tourists come to a resort just to relax, not fond of physical exertion. There are 150 lakes in the resort, many caves and waterfalls, which also deserve attention. So in a bansko camera is an equally necessary attribute than skis.
