Bansko in Summer /Parklands

I'm off to Bankso in 2 days time for 7 days. Staying in my own apartment in Parklands, just over the river by Kempinski. Parklands has been completed to absolute perfection with all facilities working and in good order. Very Happy
never visited in Summer time. Any one have any great ideas of what to do / visit ?

I have done & enjoyed it - right now is their beer fest in the square followed by the International Jazz festival which adds to the evenings entertainment.

Were off out next Wednesday for just over a week.

Activities to do - outdoor pool massive is in dobriniste you wouldnt know its there but its really nice and great mountain views.
BBQ up the mountain organised by George (intersport) or similar competitor really good afternoon out up the mountain beer bbq fish caught from the river ...

You could do the 7 lake walk ... we wanted to and I wanted to propose while up there but sadly the weather turned an it was terrential rain.

The Bear sancturary really moving.

Melnik is a great day out basically directly south of bansko over the mountain range bu its about 60 miles to go around them its a totally different climate ho muggy etc but stunning really unique wine an lots of history - note its much cheaper to ea in Melnick than Bansko.

Horse riding - you dont get a helmet ...

That what we basically did on our trip. This time its going to be a very relaxed trip totally relax chill out and hopefully get a tan with the current mid 30's heatwave hope it lasts.

re: Bansko in Summer /Parklands

maybe you've left already, but if you haven't got an outdoor pool, and it is really hot, there are a places around that you can pay to use, the nicest probably being the kempinski, they have a couple outside. they also have a tennis court, I think it was something like €20 per person per day to use all facilities for the day during the summer, less for just tennis, other places would be cheaper. There is obviously the golf courses, they are a short drive away....
