Hi
Just returned from Bansko and yes the queues can be long for the Gondola in the morning. Gondola opens at 8.30 so get there as early as you can after 9.00 expect to queue for over 1/2 hr. It did get better as the week went on though.However Its worth it. Skiing was great up the mountain. Ignore the snow forecasts. It was sunny all week at the bottom of the mountan yet snowed quite a bit at the top.
Didn`t like Bansko - just one big building site. It had no charm unlike Pamps. But out of the two resorts I would go back to Bansko. Skiing was fab
if you are going at half term the queues will be longer be there EARLY or go late
Have a brilliant time - we went there last year
Off to try Borovets this time
Was at Bansko last year and the queue's at Gondola were not to bad 20 mins max. Of to Breckenridge this year (10 days), was upset with lack of europe snow last year so far 300 inches in Breck Happy days!
