If anyone is interested, I can arrange transportation from Borovets to Malyovitsa and return but need notice in advance.

If you like Hannah, I organise Paragliding flights if that is of interest? Very Happy.......no joke Exclamation
There is heaps to do other than skiing.
Excursions to the Rila Monastary, ski dooing, day trip to Sofia, get drunk, do a workout, play pool/snooker, ten-pin bowling, horse trekk, swimming, massages, ice skating in Samokov...........
I'm out of breath!!! Very Happy

re: Borovets day trips

I dont think my parents or my 15 month old daughter would like to paraglide or get drunk Very Happy
However now that u mention paragliding - how much?
Is there an age limit on the skidoos? and how much are they?
Thanks Hannah

Fiona I would be interested in sending the better half paragliding as well but do you accept people who have been drugged and securely bound first??

An age limit regarding your mum, no I think she will be accepted.Very Happy
The paragliding flight cost BGN 160.00 leva per person.
The flights normally take off from the top of the gondola.
