We had an excellent instructor called Nick, he was better than Krassi last year, he seems to have disappeared off the face of the earth! The ski equipment was better this year. Looking to book up already for next year, even trying to persuade hubby to go again this season!!! I'll work on that one!! Missing it already. Hope all of you that are going out have a good a time as we did, well worth every penny!!

Good news Jane!Maybe you can help with my question.
I'm off to Borovets on 24th jan.

Are we likely to be split up for most of the days as a result?
And is the terrain available to beginners / boarders adequate in your view (due to the chairlift closure)
Thanks
Beth

The best beginner slopes are ot the top station of the gondola, we managed to get up there three days where it was excellent ski-ing. I hope more snow comes soon as it was getting a bit icy towards the end of the week although it wasn't as icy as the conditions last year. Its a pity the one man chair lift isn't working this year as there is a good run from the top which I ...
