How flat is george's run? Always fancied going to george's bar but i'm a boarder and it looks too long a run to be walking most of itre: Borovets Conditions - 10 Jan
Parts of it are pretty flat, mainly the upper bit. I would say it's no worse than Musala but I will happily defer to more experienced people. We've only done it with the kids which is slow going anyway...
re: Borovets Conditions - 10 Jan
I'd say much flatter than Musala. On Musala on a board I think there's only 2 or 3 small up's that I end up walking/scooting along (which are only about a minute or two each), whereas Georges and back has some real long flats. Too long and flat to even bother with scooting. You should probably give it a go, just to experience Georges, but if you ski as well, do it on a ski day instead of a board!re: Borovets Conditions - 10 Jan
Cheers for the info, i think i'll go down on my skis thenre: Borovets Conditions - 10 Jan
Ah i know never heard it called Georges before. It hasnt been open the last couple of times ive been to boro hopefully get to ski it agin this time.
re: Borovets Conditions - 10 Jan
Much flatter and slower than Mussala and not nearly as much fun. I had to do it last year as my 5 year old wanted to show me how good he was at skiing. I really hope that this year he chooses another run to show me. It's far too flat if you can ski in my opinion
re: Borovets Conditions - 10 Jan
To avoid the flat and uphill bits at the start of the run, you can ski down the first part of the Sityanakovo blue, and then take a tiny narrow bumpy track through the trees which comes out right by George's Bar. Probably not suitable for boarders because is is so narrow.
George's Bar does the best hot wine! Makes it worth the slow flat bit afterwards to get back down. But watch out for the loo there, as a very funny youtube video shows!
Apparently it is a tradition for first-time ...

Apparently it is a tradition for first-time visitors to have their photos taken on the roof of the hut.
