Visit Basko, Bulgaria for World Class Ski Resorts

the Ultimate Winter Vacation

Stefan Tenev
For the last five years Bulgaria has been undergoing some radical changes. The tourism especially has been growing tremendously. With great investments Bansko has become one of the greatest winter vacation resorts in Eastern Europe.

Bansko is located in the Pirin Mountain, its population is very small and it barely reaches the population number to be proclaimed a city. The Pirin Mountain is one of the most beautiful places in Bulgaria.In the winter Bansko becomes one of the most visited locations in Bulgaria. There are many hotels. You can find all kinds of hotels. The prices start from 40 - 200 Euros per night. Some of them offer all inclusive services and some offer just breakfast. Bansko has world class slopes and they have been recognized by the winter sports association as one of the best in the region. There are slopes for everyone. They have easy, medium, hard and extremely hard.There are couple of new lifts that just started working last season. You will be able to rent ski and snowboards in very low prices, and if you are lucky your hotel will be offering free rental of equipment.The lift pass is about 30-40 Euros depends when you buy it.

There is a special crew of 20 people which takes care of the slopes and the facilities all year long, which brings the quality of the skiing and the skiing experience overall to a very high level.There are many places to eat in Bansko. One thing that you will notice is that they have many restaurants which serve only typical Bulgarian dishes. The greatest part about Bansko is the fact that you can experience the Bulgarian culture first hand.

The people in Bansko are very welcoming and they will do whatever it takes for you to feel at home.

One great opportunity which very few people can take advantage of is to buy an apartment in Bansko. Prices are high, but the money is totally worth it. The new apartment condos are great and they offer all possible features you would ever want. Currently there are still open apartments for sale. However prices are getting higher and the open apartments are very few.

Bansko has been attracting investors for the past five years and the results are evident. There are plans for having a round of the ski world cup in the next 3-5 years so Bansko is getting very popular.

From personal experiences I am ready to admit that I have spent the best winter vacations there. In Bansko you will be able to experience the ultimate winter vacation.

Somethings to have in mind when you visit Bansko: Never bring loads of cash with you, make sure you have a safe in your hotel room and put the valuable things in it. Have in mind also that not that many places accept credit cards, however there are ATM machines all over the place.

Overall there is no question that Bansko will leave unforgettable moments in your life.
