Bov..Questions..ask away

Just got back from Bov and what a great week.

Ask away any questions and I will try and answer them. Done most things in the week so have lots of tips.

What's the beer like? How much is a pint? Any lift queues? Standard of hired equipment? Piste conditions? Off-Piste if any? Are the gondola seats comfy? What is the meaning of life?

beer about (generally) 90p a litre..lifts are busy on nursery slopes for beginners and kids but others no probs..try and hire at Rila hotel..equipment is only 4 weeks old so very good...Piste conditions when I left on Saturday were excellent cos of loads of snow..off piste even better...gondala seats are padded are comfy but not if you have a big cucumber in your back pocket!!!...meaning of life is simple...

Borovets, drunk on cheap beer, snowboarding off piste after comfy gondola lift ...

re: Bov..Questions..ask away

Inghams.

They are probably the UK's largest Ski Tour Operator and they were very good. Local reps with 1st class English, so local knowledge was obviously there.

Blimey 12 !!

As long as you are with your parents and having a meal then you will be able to have a drink, but only until 10 or 11pm i think before its adults only in the pubs.
