Like all runs, it depends on the snow cover.
Did it many times on the two visits out there, and it's not too bad. Compared to some European reds I've been on the lower half can't really be called a Black, more a steep red. I'ts nearly always pisted, and VERY wide.
The upper part, steeper and generally left mogulled, is more of a challange, but is still VERY wide.
Not trying to be big or clever, but I think it's a black mainly to appeal to the brochure readers. If you're going to ...

Good luck, and if you're a little bit tentative, do yourself a favour and wait 'till theres a little bit of snow on it.

re: Black Run - Bansko
The secret is to not stop at the top and look down... just keep skiing and you'll find your path!I skiied my first black run last year, never thought i'd be able to do it standing at the top looking down, so i just started off slow and then found my self at the bottom, in one piece and didn't fall over once,,, looked up to see other half on his ar3e about half way down... ski coming straight towards me... little adive - get your bindings checked to make sure they're up to black runs...
