7 of us from Manchester!! Sounds like Borrovets is the place to be!! we will have to try there next year!! Does it have a 25 minute gondalla like Bansko? This is my major downside to Bansko over other places with ski in ski out ... but half the price for the holiday and a 10th of the price for a beer compared to Europe! France & Italy especially!
Gondola up, but ski back... we'll be working, as usual in the winter... check out prices when you are here, the exchange at the moment is making things even cheaper
Our booking for that week are absolutely manic!! There will be lots of people in town. Put a post on here and arrange a meet somewhere see if anyone responds. There is alot more choice of bars restaurants etc etc in Bansko so it is not as tight community as Borovets.
The runs in front of the Rila are ski in out. But there is still a gondola that takes about the same time.
