Where to go skiing in Bulgaria? — best places
Wondering where to spend your winter holidays? An interesting destination may just be Bulgaria. Skiing in this picturesque country will certainly turn out to be an adventure that no one will “bury” somewhere in the depths of memory.
Bulgaria is not the most popular ski destination. This is a pity, because this Balkan country provides great conditions for all ski lovers. Snow stays there even until April, and the infrastructure is well prepared for the arrival of tourists. More than 20 ski resorts offer about 250 km of scenic trails of varying difficulty.
Do you associate Bulgaria exclusively with summer vacation and picturesque beaches? It’s high time to change this view, because the Balkan country has more to offer than just seaside attractions. As much as 60 percent of Bulgaria’s area is covered by highlands and mountains, and this makes the conditions there favorable for skiing enthusiasts as well. Prices there remain at attractive levels, making a winter vacation there cost less than skiing in Andorra and far less than skiing in Sweden. The relatively low popularity of the resorts there (especially compared to Alpine ski destinations) means that Bulgarian slopes are not overly crowded. Below we list some interesting places in Bulgaria where you should spend your winter vacation.
