Hi Keely.
Look at the webcams and you can see the state of the pavements and roads.( No gritting ). If you were going out at home, decide what you would wear on your feet. As for clothing, the temperature will be around minus 5 so you need to have warm gear. Having said that, the hotels and bars are hot!!!

So if you're staying in the hotel bar - tea shirts ( you can always nip back to your room for another shirt ). If you're going close by - thin fleece over your tee shirt. If you need to travel by taxi or you're walking more than 200 metres then you should wear your ski coat or a warm overcoat.
Hope this helps..... If not, you can search the posts at the top of the page.

Jeans and walking /snow boots, top, fleece and ski jacket is generally the thing for the evening. It isn't "dressy" at all. Very Happy

Hi Keely

If you are in the Perelik, Murgavets or Orlovets they are all connected by an underground walkway so shoes are ok. If you are going anywhere outside you will need boots of some sort, we travel in our walking boots which you will need to go to the ski station and back. We just pack a pair of shoes for around the hotels. The dress code is very informal and as Pepe says the hotels are roasting hot so it jeans, T-Shirts and thin jumpers for us when inside.

I thought it was t-shirts and thongs only.

Hi Keely, we were newbies to when we went and took far to much, a good pair of walking boots, jeans and a fleece we found did the job and t-shirt and jeans in the hotel.
