Borovets Snow Update

Hi,

Is there still a lot of snow in Borovets at the minute, and do we know if it's expected to continue over the next couple of weeks?
Have all pistes in the resort now got a lot of snow, and can they now all be skied on?
Is there enough snow for skiing right from the doorstep of the Rila hotel?

Going over and staying in the Rila hotel next week, so would be great if we can ski right from the hotel.

Thanks for your updates - Much appreciated

Check out the webcam - http://www.bulgaria-hotels.com/en/borovets_webcam.html certainly plenty at the mo! As for forecasting the next couple of weeks - they can just about manage a couple of days ahead!

List of working webcams, bit patchy but they're apparently running the cannons so should be fine.

re: Borovets Snow Update

The Rilla is that close to the slope thatr even if there was not enough snow to the door you could still make it across the path at speed to make it. I am over there in 2 weeks and cant wait but the rilla has got snow to the door as seen through the web cam. It does look patchy there aT THE MOMENT BUT GET ON THE GONDOLA AND YOUR IN ANOTHER WORLD AT THE TOP...
