Bansko Resort Info

A rapidly expanding town, Bansko is 160km south of Bulgaria's capital, Sofia. Set at an altitude of 935m, it is dominated by Vihren, the highest mountain (2,915m) in the spectacular Pirin range, close to the Macedonian border.

The town lacks shopping facilities (there are no supermarkets at all,) but toiletries and confectionery can be bought in the larger hotels. Three museums record Bansko's place in Bulgaria's history and the 500-year old church is a prominent feature.

The ski pistes are located in two main ski - centres- CHALIN VALOG (1100-1600m) and SHILIGARNIKA (1700-2500m). They are approximately 10 kilometers above the town on the northern slopes of Pirin, and are easily accessible for approx. 25 minutes on the new Gondola lift which starts from Bansko. The region's pisted area is small, but there is an estimated 750km of skiable terrain if you venture off-piste which can be reached by lift, snowmobile or M18 Russian helicopter.

Snow Overview - Bulgaria (snow news updated 31-Jan-2012)

The heavy snowfall that blessed the Bulgarian resorts at the end of last week provided excellent riding on piste on Monday 30th January. The sun was shining, meaning the visibility was ideal to take advantage of the packed and groomed snow cover on the prepared slopes. The deepest upper piste snow base of our three featured Bulgarian resorts is reported at Borovets (200/240cm), while Pamporovo (210/230cm) has the deepest lower slope depth, measured at 1700m which is 80m below the measured depth of 200cm at Borovets. Fresh snow is forecast in Bulgaria over the coming days. Pamporovo is expecting the greatest amount of new snow, where almost 60cm of snow could fall by Tuesday 7th February.
