1st February 2014

Hi, looking to book our 6th trip to Boro for 1st Feb next year.

We have never been in February before (been Xmas twice, January and March twice).

Just wondering if anyone has been the first week of Feb and experienced a really busy resort. It isn't UK school holidays so we are hoping it shouldn't be much different from January/March.

Thanks

Kim

Went first week of feb this year and whilst warmer than we would have wished (usually ok that time of year) it was busy but not too busy. Had a great time and will most likely go back same time next year.

This can be a good time to come here, the later Orthodox Christmas and New Year holiday crowds have left and the UK half termers are yet to arrive.
Weather wise, nobody can be sure, but it is more snow sure than earlier in the season.
If it is of interest at the moment the Markudjik slopes have more snow than they have had all season and Yastrebets 2 and 3 are also still skiing well.
Pity our season passes run out on the 15th April.
We have heard that the season will be extended. ...

Maybe to 5th May which is the Easter holiday here? Last year we skied until the 2nd of May.
Might have to buy a few day passes?
