Thank you, I知 looking forward to Bansko.

re: 4 questions to Bansko

Bansko is only at 900-1000m. The only way you could have a horse carraige is if there is snow at the resort which is not so common. On that respect i would say no to you being able to do any sleighing unless it is at the ski area. I do not know the answers to your other questions, hope it helps

We paid by credit card at the Gondela.

Ski pass is electronic however there is a photo of the card owner on the card - so you cannot share a card!

re: 4 questions to Bansko

there is no photo on one day passes though, yes they accept mastercard, there is no specific area for sledding, but people do.
