Bulgaria has three main areas for skiing holidays: Bansko, Borovets and Pamporovo. Many of the ski runs provided by this trio of exciting resorts are suitable for those just starting their skiing careers, although the slopes of Pamporovo cater equally as well for beginners as they do for more advanced skiers. There are other smaller resorts where you may like to book a skiing package holiday, but below is a lowdown of the so-called top three. Bansko Bansko has 15 ski runs and primarily caters for beginners and intermediates, which makes the destination ideal for family holidays. You will find the resort on the second-highest mountain in Bulgaria - Pirin - and it is one of the most modern skiing areas in the country. Bulgaria's national park regions in the south-west are beautiful and a visit to them should take in the hot mineral springs situated at the foot of the Pirin Mountain. And if the skiing facilities and spectacular scenery still do not satiate your appetite, then the snowboard park surely will. Borovets With a history going back to the 19th century, Borovets lays claim to being the oldest place for a Bulgarian skiing holiday. The majority of the ski runs here are described as intermediate, so it could be the perfect place for groups heading on their second skiing trips. However, there are facilities for beginners and advanced skiers, as well as a pool and gym area to keep you entertained when you're not surfing the snow. Staying in the glorious setting of the Rila Mountain towards the south of Bulgaria, skiers at Borovets will benefit from breathtaking views of diverse flora and fauna and crystal lakes. Walking trails circle the resort, providing a platform for you to take a day off from skiing to explore the surrounding area. Pamporovo Located high up in the Rhodopa mountains at the foot of Mount Snejanka, Pamporovo could be the choice of advanced skiers heading on skiing holidays to Bulgaria. There are four advanced runs, allowing the experts to show off their snow skills, although the resort also caters for families and novices with its ten beginner and intermediate routes.
