Blues are fine as long as theres decent snow on them- quite easy really- the reds in borovets arnt that bad really! the Yastberets couple can be icy in the mornings and make you think about pace and turns a little but generally there ok- my kids 11 and 9 manage all of them at speed too Very Happy

I started off as a beginner, had done skiing a couple of times but could only snow plough. Our instructor took us down a blue the first day and after that we were doing reds and they weren't that scary!! I was doing parellel turns by the end of the week but had a good instructor. The rest of the group managed the red runs doing snow plough turns. Depends if your up for the challenge!! Very Happy
