If you want to discover some of the Europe festivals that are off the beaten track this Christmas then you should consider heading to the ski resort of Borovets in Bulgaria. Known as the oldest such resort in eastern Europe, Borovets promises more than 45 km of pistes and other trails for you to get to grips with during your trip. What's more, you're guaranteed a white Christmas if you stay in Borovets because the resort has 14 snow cannons on hand to make sure that you can still take to the slopes. The host of nightclubs, bars and restaurants are just some of the reasons that the Bulgarian resort has been selected for the Snowmad festival in 2010. On your arrival, you will be greeted by a welcome party, where you can dance the night away and acclimatise before hitting the ski slopes the following day. A six-day lift pass is included as part of your festival ticket, which will allow you to make the most of the Christmas ski tour that is offered by the resort. But you can always make use of it on your own or with a group of friends if you want to go and explore some of the mountainous territory that makes Borovets famous. If you're worried that jetting off to Bulgaria will mean that you will miss out on a fantastic Christmas dinner back home then you can think again! On December 25th, your festival pass will allow you to join in all the fun and merriment at the gala Christmas dinner. Snowmad caters for groups with a wide range of abilities on the snow, as well as for a selection of budgets - you can always save some money by choosing the bed and breakfast option rather than half-board. Although you could easily split all your time between the slopes and the bars, you should take a day to appreciate the natural beauty of the region - maybe following one of the cross-country ski routes will allow you to do just that? Most importantly, enjoy yourself on your winter wonderland break by making use of all that the Snowmad festival has to offer.
